You know, ProudLoud, if Tucker Carlson says that the sun rises in the east - that does not cause it to suddenly start rising in the west. If a moron tells you that keeping your car tires inflated to the right pressure saves on gas - that doesn't mean you should run outside and let 20psi out of your tires so they are half flat. When this is all over and it is revealed how many millions of people died simply because they were denied HCQ and Ivermectin, the court trials will begin. Many countries in Africa have fewer than 200 deaths, some have less than 50 deaths due to Covid and that is simply due to HCQ being normally taken for Malaria. It is amazing that people (like you) would allow innocent people to die just out of spite for Donald Trump. Now everyone who wants to survive by taking HCQ is a Trump supporter - most people don't even follow politics that seriously and could not care less about Trump or Biden or any of them - but if they are sick, they would like to have some medicine. If someone breaks their leg nowadays, do they have to wait for the bone marrow vaccine - or are we still allowed to put casts on broken limbs?
They talking about the nurses who after they graduated in 2009 had their lunch vouchers canceled right away but had to wait many months for their first paycheck? Those nurses? Or is it the group if nurses a few years ago that govt outright even refused to meet with? Ot is it the nurses who the Bahamian people every five years force to work under either an FNM or PLP govt? Now those voters have no nurses and i say didnt they know thats what they were voting for?
We need VAT. The exemptions to VAT need to be canceled and it reduced to 10%. It's the only tax that illegals and under the table people pay. Why should they not pay? Also havent you noticed more Bahamians questioning govt spending and natural resources etc ever since it affects their pocket? Reform govt waste THEN reduce VAT to 7% and lower. Reform must come first. If you remove VAT then the people dont care about reform. Oh yeah, and be sure dont vote for no independent candidates, they have no experience in tiefin. LOL. Someone told me they were inexperienced, im guessing thats what they meant?
Rubbish. I suggest you go to Expedia.com and search for tomorrow FLL to nas. lots of flights available all day long. Direct flights starting at $272. Delta, Bahamasair, American, and Jet Blue. Besides that obvious "fact check", please be aware that all of this noise in the market with the shut down gas pipeline and everything else is just a smokescreen to take your attention off of the big problem - which is forced vaccinations. Pay attention and you will see they will pull every trick in the book. Get ready for explosions, plane crashes, fires, mass shootings, anything that makes news so that people lose focus on the forced vaccinations.
Please don't encourage Bahamians to "not vote at all". Our system does not recognize low turnout. If only 10 people vote in a constituency and someone gets 4, someone gets 3, someone gets 2, and someone get 1 vote - then the candidate who got 4 votes wins that seat. The thousands that stayed home played no role whatsoever and now are stuck with Mr. 4 Votes. (or Mrs. 4 Votes). Please encourage people to vote Independent. I don't know how many decades of cut hip from FNM and PLP the Bahamian people wish to receive. They can receive however many they vote for, of course. Didn't we just throw these folks out 4 years ago? The same Davis and many of the others? They got new batteries for their halos now, so we must vote them in again? Or vote FNM? Seriously? I swear if FNM or PLP win this next election, then the Bahamas deserves whatever it gets. People with no jobs, no health care, being tossed out by landlords cause they ain't working? Being treated like terrorists at the banks? Whatever we get we will deserve.
Sounds like a Russian cyber attack - there is NO WAY that 5000 people are applying for permission to visit the Bahamas at this time. Don't make me laugh.
But then, I just had to laugh when I read the name of the fishing place...."Born Free Fishing Charters" - that's even funnier that people who are applying for permission to travel would go to a place called Born Free. Unless I guess we all accept now that maybe we were born free, but now we are tagged animals. That's funny and not funny at the same time.
Maybe I will open up a charter business and call it "Filthy Disease Spreader Fishing Charters" in order to be more hip with the times.
Yes, there is a serious issue with low income housing - because every "house" that pops up is occupied by a Haitian. Remember there are 12 million of them down there just waiting for the next boat to come up. Maybe we should impose a $100/gallon gasoline tax (yes one hundred dollars per gallons) to help to pay for the additional costs of housing and health and schooling etc for Haitians in this country. Good idea? If it were a referendum, I would vote YES for sure. Only then will people get a true feeling for the magnitude and stupidity of the problem.
Chester Cooper, we don't want your new normal. If that's what you're running on, save your $400. I see the mass shootings have been increasing in the USA. Even had a school shooting in Russia yesterday (of all places). People are reaching the end of their rope. How many more feet or inches are on that rope? I don't know. The problem, often times though, is that when ropes reach their ends and uprisings begin they are often very very difficult or even impossible to stop. I remember the LA riots after Rodney King. Imagine that on a global scale?
