Obviously this change is citizenship law is being rammed down our throats by the US and other external forces. Now those mothers who choose to go the US to have their babies will no longer have the luxury of their children having US citizenship. And many children who are born in the US and in other countries around the world may find themselves being deported unceremoniously even after they live in those countries all their lives. Even though these persons may be entitled to Bahamian citizenship, there should be a process where they have to apply and to relinquish the citizenship of any other country.

actually its your ignorance you are mistaking for bigotry.

If Baltron Bethel is that age and still needs a contract to survive then piss on the PLP!!! Imagine us his age and made a quarter of what he made and still have to retire. piss on Baltron Bethel and piss on the PLP!!

Well you talk about the 20,000 to 30,000 children who are born in the country and have no status. Most countries laws state that children born out of wedlock take the nationality of their father. So given They already have the nationality of their fathers and Minnis is now also making them Bahamians through the nationality of their mothers, Minnis is opening a whole new can of worms. Firstly many countries does not recognize dual nationality so these individuals will have to give up or confirm their Bahamian citizenship at some point, say 18. Secondly where there’s a family dispute and the father is claiming one nationality for the children and the mother is saying Bahamian what overrules? Thirdly since these children citizenship are automatic they can live outside the country most of their lives and if they get in problems with the law, they can be deported to the Bahamas, no questions asked. Then there can be the claim of proof of citizenship of the mother. For example there are many children being born to parents of Haitian illegal immigrants. The mother, and maybe father was born in the Bahamas all their lives but have no legal status. How do you classify these children and the generations of them to come? Yes there may be amendments to citizenship requirements. But Minnis cannot take it upon himself to do it against the wishes of the Bahamian people. And if he doesn’t tread carefully the entire state of the indigenous Bahamian can be wiped out with the wrong stroke of a pen.

One must really wonder who is behind these citizens change issues and the motive behind it. With so much pressing issues facing the country why would the Minnis government rush to change qualifications for Bahamian citizenship that the Bahamian election voted so resoundingly against? Why is the Minnis government planning to establish a lottery when the Bahamian people loudly and clearly said they didn’t want one? Clearly these moves are to appease some special interests groups at the expense and possible detriment of the Bahamian people. And if Minnis continues to go against the wishes of the people who elected him and the others he is mandated to serve, his defeat at the polls during the next Election will be the worst in the history of this country. Is GAY marriage next on his agenda?

"A corporate tax, also called corporation tax or company tax, is a direct tax imposed by a jurisdiction on the income or capital of corporations or analogous legal entities. Many countries impose such taxes at the national level, and a similar tax may be imposed at state or local levels. The taxes may also be referred to as income tax or capital tax. Partnerships are generally not taxed at the entity level. A country's corporate tax may apply to:

corporations incorporated in the country,
corporations doing business in the country on income from that country,
foreign corporations who have a permanent establishment in the country, or
corporations deemed to be resident for tax purposes in the country.
Company income subject to tax is often determined much like taxable income for individual taxpayers. Generally, the tax is imposed on net profits. In some jurisdictions, rules for taxing companies may differ significantly from rules for taxing individuals. Certain corporate acts, like reorganizations, may not be taxed. Some types of entities may be exempt from tax.

Countries may tax corporations on its net profit and may also tax shareholders when the corporation pays a dividend. Where dividends are taxed, a corporation may be required to withhold tax before the dividend is distributed."

So what is the difference this and the current Business Licence Tax?

what you are saying is reverse of the matter.
