This. I won't believe they will ditch the business license regime until I see it. We got sold the same dream with VAT and duty. Our politicians thrive off of the electorate's short memory and collective stupidity.

Why don't we just get rid of border control entirely and let the whole country go up for grabs?

"Brain drain" is not being caused by our immigration policy, our "brain drain" is a result of 50+ years of governmental failure courtesy of the Plunder Loot and Pillage and Foreign National Movement administrations (plus the misguided notion that life is automatically going to be better for them overseas which many Bahamians seem to possess). Only a complete fool would believe this drivel.

> One of the mistakes of the last PLP administration was that it failed to provide accountability and lost the public trust. That led to them being voted out in a landslide.

And then being voted right back in 4.5 years later...

I feel like not enough people realize how utterly broken our political system is at this point.

Paternity testing should be mandatory before even accepting a father's name on the birth certificate.

The only people opposed to this measure are those with treasonous intent to sell out what little remains of our national heritage.

If this quote doesn't show you that voting is truly a waste of time, I don't know what will. He is just saying the quiet part out loud and telling everyone that the wishes of the Bahamian people are worthless and that it doesn't matter what we think. I still remember the number houses referendum a decade ago, it was a watershed moment for me politically because it was probably the first time that I saw what a waste of time voting was when the voice of the Bahamian people would not be respected in any event. It's kabuki theatre that only midwits still believe in.

Let me know when they tear the first one down.

Wait until you learn what "real money" is backed by lol.

The UN is possibly the most irrelevant organization in global politics at the moment. Why do we even pay these people the time of day?

I would take it a step further and say that we need to retroactively revoke certain citizenships just like the Dominican Republic did a little while back.

Head of state wields no real power in the day to day affairs of this country, what does replacing King Charles with another government teat sucking parasite really accomplish? Absolutely nothing.

The whole issue of a republic is brought up solely by politicians who are completely out of touch with what the average Bahamian has to endure on a daily basis to survive; they fail to realize that nobody really cares because there are literally a thousand bigger problems that need to be dealt with.
