The arrogance of these people to pretend that they are some kind of victims in this situation is astounding; I studied overseas and did not build a shack on a next man's property that I had no rights to be on in the first place. These people and their mentality are incompatible with civilized society.
Bahamians, generally speaking, are too tech illiterate for ecommerce solutions to become big in this country. Trying to get something as simple as a document properly scanned and emailed is a hair pulling exercise with a lot of people here.
You think so? Tbh I still maintain that nothing significant will ever come from this matter; sbf might spend a couple of months in a posh "rich people" prison, and maybe one or two Bahamian fall guys will get picked up, but the truth is that the US political establishment is just as guilty of taking kickbacks from this scam as any of the Bahamian ones. They will do what they always do: find a fall guy to take the blame for the history books, and sweep it under the rug. Nobody important will ever face justice.
Tbh I think that people are gassing the significance of this issue up way higher than it actually is. The average Bahamian has far too many more pressing matters to worry about than whatever happens with this deal. The thing is that this situation is not even the worst scandal Brave them have had so far; they literally admitted to brazen theft a little while back (Bermuda trip) and nobody literally batted an eye. Aside from Lincoln Bain, nobody in this country really seems to care.
China is much more dependent on economic soft power than the US; that, plus the fact that most of their neighbors (aside from N Korea) hate them, means they really haven't had the chance to put a whole bunch of military installations overseas. That being said, I agree with you that TPTB in the West are going to force a war with Russia and China soon enough; they are giving Russia in particular no other option, and China is looking at the Ukraine situation and anticipating the same playbook with Taiwan.
This country is rapidly becoming (an even worse) international embarrassment. These people will come up with any cockamamie excuse to avoid taking personal responsibility for their actions.
You mean like the woman who has just been charged with corruption, or the one that couldn't read numbers from a spreadsheet, or the one that couldn't tell you how many taxi plates have been given out? To pin our leadership issues on sex is the height of stupidity considering we have more than enough examples of idiots and crooks among both men and women in government. Truth is the leadership issues stem from genetics, particularly IQ as it relates to being unable to understand the long term consequences of actions.

There is indeed a demographic correlation with crime, but it certainly isn't on the basis of religion. Look a little deeper.
