Might I suggest the Defence Force buy a drone for Xmas? You could spot them from miles away.

Guys, we are not talking of personal income taxes. The EU does not care about that. They care about corporate income taxes. For companies, not individuals.

I see absolutely no problem. They want to f**k with us? We will f**k with them. Let's introduce 20% corporate tax, just like in the USA. Everyone will just report losses and since no one in government knows how to read a balance sheet or earning statement, there will be no problem. It will be a voluntary tax with no enforcement. Everyone happy.

"Bahamians educate yourselves, please. The majority of spouses of World Leaders holds an office."

I have educated myself. I know the difference between "majority" and 1.

UK: No
Canada: No
Russia: No
China: No
Germany: No
Italy: No
Switzerland: No
Latin America: No

In fact, the only place of any import that does have a staffed office at public expense for a "spouse" is the USA. If you are trying to compare the position of the wife of a President of the only superpower on earth with the wife of a PM of 300,000 islanders....well, that is just ridiculous.

I am not trying to get into an argument, I am just stating facts.

It's not misogynistic in the slightest to suggest that a wife has many ways to make a husband do her bidding. Happens to me all the time.

How that? Stock market new highs every day, record low interest rates, all time low joblessness, industrial production all time highs. How precisely is it NOT working?

So much for the representation of that fat little PLP boy (Brave) who promised he would win.

God Almighty cannot stand in the way of a US Court when IRS money is involved.

Remember that and don't fall for Brave's lies again.

Every woman knows what she can threaten her husband with if he does not do as she wants. What does she want an office for?

She has the bedroom!

No business tax in those areas? Great! What a genius idea!

We all know what is going to happen now, don't we? Businesses from just outside the area are going to move into that area. Rents will go up in that area and down next door. So, some losers, some gainers. Net result = a big fat zero.

What should be done is obvious since the 1930s (I always forget we are 100 years behind, so we will discover this in about 15 years). Spoiler alert: public works. Employ all the unemployed building roads, bridges, schools, hospitals. God knows we need them. They get immediate employment and immediate effect.

Print the money. It is simple. Just look at what the Federal Reserve, Bank of Japan and European Central Bank are doing. You don't even have to think. Just copy.
