Lol.

Might not happen if interest rates keep getting hiked. The spending bubble is eventually going to pop.

I know of a couple cases where the government has funded a student's overseas education only to have them get residency abroad and never return home. Most of our national debt is the result of sheer stupidity.

DV perpetrated by a female might sound jokey, but I know of women who will throw pots, pans, knives, and whatever else they can find at their husbands when they are ready. Nothing you can do in that situation other than leave, any attempt at self defense will probably land you in court.

It obviously had to have been something serious for him to jump out of a moving vehicle.

Agreed 100%.

Tbh there is no reason that anyone with the financial capacity to do so should not own a backup generator at this point. The power hasn't suddenly just started going off this year/decade/century.

The ignorance of Bahamian voters in continuing to vote for the FNM and PLP poses a mortal threat to the survival of this nation.

I'm not a monarchist by any means, but I don't think life would be a single bit worse under direct rule from a King (just using that as an example). While democratic forms of governance go as far back as ancient Greece, modern democracy as we know it is a product of the Enlightenment; many great empires existed prior to that point in time.

I don't think our problem is having a democratic form of government per se, but that our nation is not mature enough to have that kind of government (hence the protracted transformation into a third world banana republic that we are currently witnessing). A democratic form of government requires individuals that are willing to conduct themselves with integrity and sacrifice personal gain in the name of common good. Using the United States as an example, John Adams clearly said that the Constitution was designed for a godly and moral people. The same principle applies here, and our dire shortage of godly and moral leaders is why our political system will continue to break down until there is reform or collapse.

I briefly thought SBF was a cooked goose until the ties with Ukraine and bigwig politicians in the US became public. Notice how Bahamian media outlets have given this story far more coverage than US ones; the "cabal" isn't going to get rid of one their own.

I really don't care anymore; this country is doomed and anyone with an ounce of foresight has seen it for a long time. I just do my best to survive and prepare for the standards of living to continue to decline.

Hot take of the day : Bahamians will vote the PLP out for lying and tiefin in another couple of years and put the FNM back in only to vote them out after another term for lying and tiefin and put the PLP back in. There, I saved you 10 years worth of news articles.
