Yes, and rest assured that the new policy of US elections (observers being kept 10ft - 50ft or more away from the counting table) will be implemented as well (for security reasons LOL). Remember social distancing is 6ft, except in ballot counting rooms where it must be increased.
"...living three or more months in a new place or residence and removing the deceased and incarcerated from the current register."
Just one more injustice to those who find themselves in Her Majesty's Motel; the inability to vote. It is the same in the USA. In fact, I believe that only Israel in the entire world allows prisoners to vote.
What rationale do people use to justify prisoners being treated as non-citizens? I suppose, since they are treated worse than animals on a daily basis, perhaps that is the justification? So if you steal a Snickers from a gas station, then you are no longer a Bahamian? Interesting. I guess being a Bahamian is not such a big deal, since that status can be taken away so easily.
I'm sure many white supremacy organizations are doing a happy dance over cancel culture. As all of the monuments to the Civil War etc are removed, it will make it that much easier to re-introduce slavery into a population that no longer knows it ever existed. There will be nothing left to remind blacks of what they have overcome. Not only will they no longer have "overcome" anything (like the song says "We shall Overcome") - but they will be ignorant of the signs of its return. Ignorance is a spectacular thing.
Exactly, Robert, but remember "if only one life can be saved from the tragedy of Covid-19, it will all be worth it." The entire population can starve to death and the country be brought to its knees with only a prayer of recovery in the next 5 years, unemployment, mental health crises, child education issues - but remember we saved those 9 and half people from dying from the super flu.
It's worth it. It's worth it. It's worth it. Repeat as often as necessary until you believe it. LOL.
"The Government and Bahamian tourism industry stakeholders have previously argued that US travel advisories do not reflect the reality on the ground, with the vast majority of tourists enjoying a safe and enjoyable vacation."
Similarly, the "vast majority" of people infected with the virus do not get sick nor do they die - and yet we are making a mountain out of that mole hill. What's the difference?
"We are unfortunately not like the United States who can print money and other countries who have greater access,..."
This has been the design all along - don't forget how for decades Nassau has complained about Freeport being "like the USA". Now suddenly we want to be like the USA hey? LOL. So funny.
One of the big reasons why we even have VAT is because of government fighting against Freeport all these years and sinking its economy. No money into Treasury, so needed a substitute.
Now the country is begging for bread. Too bad too sad. I guess the white man only needed when in desperation. LOL.
They won't face the reality until it becomes a reality - that's the Bahamian way. The land of dreams and promises since 1973. The people eat dreams and drink promises, that is their sustenance (along with Ramen noodles and weenie in da can).
The sad fact is that the entire world must simply sit by and wait until the election virus subsides. All except for Africa where they live in towns made up of tiny tin huts, smooshed together so close that social distancing is impossible and there is barely any running water for hand washing, and insufficient masks. However, their virus counts and deaths are way low. Some think it is because they have been using the deadly poisonous hydroxychloriquine suggested by Donald Trump - the same medicine they have used for malaria for about 70 years. It is commonly available there without a prescription.
They are alive and well, with hardly any impact from the virus. Shouldn't the hydroxy have killed them all by now? Amazing also how African countries (or no country besides UK and Italy) are never mentioned in US news with regard to the virus. Notice how you never see any graphs of death counts, they only show case count graphs.
Oh, just a quick note, I heard some new satellite is being launched in December for the specific purpose of analyzing sea levels. Don't remember name or anything. Try to check it out. I feel we need more evidence, as per your point #3. It's all hype up to this point.

Maybe now he will have more free time and can figure out where the VAT money gone.
