What about the fishermen, construction workers, all the Hatiens being paid cash. "Under the table" is a common British phrase. So much for a job legally but cheaper for cash.
Additionally, merchants never seem to pass on savings, and we are being double and triple taxed already with VAT.

Reduction in import duty is only effective if the savings are passed along and we all know that especially on the family islands many stores simply pocket the extra cash. As for the National 1Health anybody with half a brain knew that wasn't feasible. Take central Eleuthera where close to a million dollars has been spent simply to rip a hill to provide a hospital. Why do we practice jungle economics and start these grandiose schemes that cannot be afforded. If you can,t staff and stock regular clinics how the hell can you operate all these so called island hospitals. Time to get real.

Less than the cost of one failed Carnival.

Just waiting to see the "blame the FNM" followers rubbing their hand in glee. The reality is that this dire financial situation is due in large part to the criminal spending of OUR money, by the incompetent and corrupt PLP. The average diehard PLP supporter still believes there is a money tree to provide countless government jobs and replace aging infrastructure. Sorry if we get downgraded everybody suffers with the exception of the ex ministers who have foreign bank accounts and property.

Thats because price gouging is a regular event especially withbfood prices on the family islands.

Some good ideas but remember churches often become an extension of one persons dream and also are in many cases a money making business. Not sure about the tax break for atheists?

Your so stupid that basic grade one maths escapes you.The PLP borrowed and spent like there was no tomorrow leaving little or no wiggle room for the incoming administration. Any possible hurricane damage affects the national economy and all of us and you can't get blood out of a stone.

Typical of everything in this country.Have a Carnival but don't fix what is necessary. And yet on Eleuthera weeks and weeks have been spent at huge cost ripping a hillside just to get a level surface to build this so called hospital. Doesn't anybody think these things through. A classic case of our eyes are bigger than our bank balance.

You are deluded Mudd take sic. It was the PLP that drove debt to these unsustainable levels and left the following government with few options. On what planet do you live ?
