@john BTC's phone cards are not a Social Welfare Program as your previous comments about phone cards seem to imply. Like any business if the margins aren't there you find another higher margin product to sell.

“First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a socialist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me—
and there was no one left to speak out for me.”

― Martin Niemöller

Sure did.

I give a crap because they are pissing away hard earned taxpayer's money (mine included) on frivolous BS. I'm sure they are all collecting the frequent flyer miles for themselves as well. This BS just pisses me off as they try to shove VAT down our collective throats. We need the FOIA legislation passed so we can see the cost for Christie Perry's flying circus. (No offence to Monty Python)

This is happening in more than just BEC. It's wide spread in Government. disgusting!!!!!

Crap like this just shows their total disdain for the Bahamian people. It our damn money they are living it up on.

Who paid for his trip?

What a waste!! Speechless!
