First off I am quite aware of the technology that is being developed to replace human labor. Some will be successful and some will create more complex problems. My issue with banker and those that befondle her is her reference to Bahamians as low life and subhuman. Hey that is the language they used to authenticate slavery. And her implication is that technology is being developed to replace slaves and so the "low human capital " will be lower than robots. Guess she will also be falsely accusing them (robots) of rapes too. May God help us!
@reality check.. you cut from the same cloth that refers to Bahamians as subhuman and animals. You are the ones trying to integrate racial discord and disharmony where it don't exist. Go's good riddance to you and your kind!
@ banker:: what do you want the government to do? Start a war like Trump is trying to do and kill off those you refer to as low human and sub-humans? You are the dirtiest form of human being that thinks no life except yours have value. You and those that have your dirty, nasty thinking ways. Your plans will fail! The earth was created for mankind and not just one set of man. And it was not created for machines and robots. They are tools to help man but will never replace him. God will destroy the earth before he allows that to happen.
Yes we have some bad apples, but allow them to be wed out and removed rather than holding all Bahamians captive. When you go to parts of the Abaco's and other Family Islands and see how people get along, that is representative of how all Bahamians lived. And we need to bring this back to New Providence. Stop letting foreigners who have theis own issues and their own hidden agendas dictate to us.
Again, even the suggestion of death threats must be taken seriously in the current crime environment. And because of what was coming from the powers of the opposition, "when you dig a grave for your enemy, dig two", and what they(PLP), 'was gonna do'. to FNM's when they got back into power, one would not disbelieve that someone would try and put an end to the ongoing investigations of corruption and misconduct by the PLP officials in office. Get the investigations done, let the chips fall where they may and allow the prophecy of Myles Munroe to be fulfilled: New Leaders, New vision, New direction, New Bahamas.
The demise of Bay Street came about when previous governments and property owners harkened to the voices that be and removed Bahamians off Bay Street. Not unlike they did on Paradise Island and other parts of the Bahamas where they spared no efforts to make (black) Bahamians feel unwelcome. The real and genuine tourists applauded Bahamians for their warmth And friendliness but this group who have racial separation and discourse in their own homeland seem to have an agenda to disenfranchise every single black Bahamian and steal their birthright. We must not allow this to happen. Just watch when their operatives post even on here. The descriptions they use for Bahamians. Subhuman, animals, predators, wild animals. The government must stop yielding to these goons and stop selling our country and our young people short. Cater to the real and genuine people and let those who want our young people held at Bay go elsewhere .
No one is going to invest in downtown unless there is a comprehensive and workable plan that is target specific and purpose intended. Meaning just to rebuild downtown just for the sake of rebuilding it will be unsuccessful and a waste of money. Local Bahamians have abandoned Bay Street or have been forced off. So less than 10% of locals will venture downtown. The high end tourists too see the city center as a delipadated dump and while stores like Quantum, John Bull and Colombian Emeralds survives because of their worldwide brand recognition, no one really goes to Bay Street for a real shopping experience. Then there are the cruise ship passengers. They are on a budget, most likely and many use Bay Street as a thoroughfare to the Beaches: The less shopping distractions, the better for them. So Downtown must now become a living city that has residents in it and where it can sustain itself. Any additional attractions must be secondary. The traffic will have to be rer/regulated during certain hours of the day and easily accessible is a must.parking
Only a jackass would even suggest banning jet skiiing! Less incidents of (sexual) harrassment happens in the whole jet ski operations than occurs on an average weekend on the beaches in South Florida. (and yes) They are considering banning the sale of alcohol after 10:00 pm on those beaches, but bet the ban will be lifted shortly thereafter. They only want to remove the jet skis to tell (subliminally) young Bahamian men men they are 'undesireables' or "subhuman' and not good enough to interact with the tourists.. The majority of these men are hard working,. industrious, God fearing and well mannered. They are also young and to be attracted to young adult girls on the beach is a natural thing. May as well ban Tourists if Bahamians cannot get their fair shake in the market. Why not ban the internet because of the so many negative things that happen on it.
So show me the ones who don't want to work. Maybe they no longer want to be slaves and work for peanuts but 95% of Bahamians are wanting and willing to work. And so if they quit a job and take a break after a while is that against the law. People all over the globe do it. Some folks quit jobs to travel around the world then go back to work
