Nothing but lip service and empty promises. Davis admits not enough done but fails yet again to provide details on what he will do going forward. Pig in a blanket.
On a different subject, I find it interesting how the Tribune arbitrary decides which stories can and cannot be commented on. The headline story yesterday "no law to save wife from rape" allowed no comments.
According to www.bahamasbudget.gov.bs the government collected around $1.8 billion for 2020/21. VAT being around 40% of that number. With an estimated population of around 410,000 that comes to around $4,400 for every single person in taxes every year. With these numbers I think that both PLP & FNM are just incompetent and also thieving too much.

Slow news day indeed but... "unnatural male sexual intercourse" compared to natural male sexual intercourse?

Damn right. VAT, duty, VAT on duty, inspection fees, VAT on transport fees, etc... A $3 item might have an actual purchase cost of $1.
