Shame on the Bahamian government who can’t seem to get enough of blood money recycled back into their hands by the U.S to repeat more of the same , it's just another racket legally created by the ruling class, signed into law by the political class and was promoted and marketed by the religious class as god’s word, just like slavery was. Our only solution to this is education, it’s so stupid to keep your population illiterate but expect to have a thriving economy, from what? Crime? The Political class must be voted out! Their kids must not be voted in either, nor their cronies; this colonialist divide and rule tactic must stop, trying to keep the masses uneducated as a means to control them, mass information is at our finger tips, in our pockets, and gangster rap about getting rich or die trying is legal, it was so excepted by the masses they made a movie too, this is what many of our disenfranchised youths listen to; movies like Shottas and YouTube is littered with gangsterism videos how can you control what the young people watch? This problem is exasperating to say the least, and now that marijuana is becoming legal who is again reaping the benefits? And who is so indoctrinated and disenfranchised that the very thing that made them what they are, they are not allow to reap the benefits; shame on any ‘black government’ for not putting those affected by the war on drugs in position to grow their own cannabis and make a living for themselves and their families. Am sorry if I offend anyone, but the time for sweet conversation is pass, we are literally loosing this our next generation. Religious leaders are going to have some explaining to do in 10 years when cannabis begins curing cancer.

Some great post above, many so call religious leaders fail to read, just repeating regurgitated literalist babblings. Christianity itself is not a book of peace, it about WAR! it's about divide and conquer, it's about turning fathers against son's and mothers against daughters if any of them choose not to be controlled be its doctrine, this is so evident in many poor countries where religion is used to pacify the masses, how many Bahamian parents have kicked their children out of their homes because they choose not to go to church every Sunday etc? This is their own flesh and blood they carried for 9 months! Religion is about control, this is the essence of religion! You're fooling yourself if you don't think ISIL think that they are carrying out god's work! And don't fool yourself, in a fundamentalist Christian theocracy Christianity will be committing the same atrocities or worse, am not speculating, the doctrine is written in the bible today! Yes, the King James version! Religion has failed this generation, we live in an information age where religious leaders are not the only ones with the keys to truth and knowledge, like in the days when the bible was written to convince the poor, the uneducated to submit to the selfish laws of the ruling class, it was not out of fear of the laws the ruling class created, but god himself! (see the movie The Book of Eli) Hitler did not just hate the Jews, it was about control, slavery in the U.S was not about hating black skin, it was about money and control of goods and services, in all these, religion was used as a control mechanism. Initially, the job of a church overseer was for white men only, it was to make sure when the slaves gathered they was 'preaching' what he wanted to hear, which is to keep the masses humble with fear and trembling and not teaching them to be self sufficient and emancipating themselves, those who choose not to submit to this control system was simply killed ; this is history! Shame on all religious institutions who refused to stand up and preach that the war on drugs is modern day genocide, mass incarceration of poor and minority was not only because of racism, but money and control, this is not a black vs. white issue; however, now that ‘white homes’ are feeling the pain of the war on drugs, in spite of its 7 to 1 distortional rate overwhelmingly targeting blacks and Hispanics the tide is rapidly changing in the U.S.

I think reading the history of the 'good book' and it's original intent and origin can solve many inaccuracies. Sadly there are homes and churches still have pictures of the great painter Michelangelo's cousin with his european complexion and blue eyes and long hair in their sacred place of worship, while singing he was born in a manger in a continent of darked skinned people. but what do I know I could be label as a 'sinner' or even though I know my father, I can be labelled as a child of this made up scary person, the devil. When people are so indoctrinated that they cannot read the full opinion of one who is different from theirs? that's very scary it's that "i'm right you are wrong ideology" The notion that you can control other's to only think and be like you want them to is the essence of control. It has never worked, not even for Hitler, and it definitely will not work in The Bahamas. However, I respect your opinion, and will defend you to think that way.

great post! thank you!

say whatcha like: When I've protected you and you decide to bring my arch enemy to my doorsteps, nothing to see here folks, it's the gays, no it's those angry black men who need to get a job, let's keep praying for them, it's not poverty, nope, it's not obvious political corruption in BOTH main parties, nope, it's not hypocritical religious indoctrination, nope, it's not a poor educational system, nope, it's not the mass disenfranchisement of young men from the 'war on drugs' nope, it's not a Christmas Counsel that feeds on the fear and ignorance of people to get rich and keep them mentally poor, nope, it's not dinosaurs, with dino degrees from the 1960's negotiating with savvy ivy league businessmen/women, nope, it's not a populace willing to DIE for political party while the nation suffers, nope, it's not that our government is fresh outta ideas and don't know how to bring NEW money into our country other than selling all our natural resources, nope, it's not that we still holding on to the tourism golden goose to deliver us from everything, nope, it's those black men who need Jesus and a job and everything will be just alright, after all Christopher Columbus discovered The Bahamas in 1492... #EconomicAssassination #China #Murica

My heart aches for all the families suffering because of all this nonsense.

DEU, Marine Support, U.S Coast Guard, wow! great work stopping all that caribbean grown drugs from getting into the USA, now, how about teaming up with the U.S to stop the flow of all these American made GUNS from getting into the bahamas! smh!

This my friends is a very dangerous game being played by China and their cronies, Bahamian Politicians/Elites and their Cronies and Baha Mar and his/their cohorts. As a Bahamian living abroad, I often wondered 'What were they thinking' bringing the arch enemy of the United States 30 mile off its border? IMHO, it now seems that this can go in two directions, (1) an economic boom for the Bahamian economy 'controlled' by China, on U.S borders, or (2) an economic failure 'controlled' by China, on U.S borders! Either way, the United States is not happy and I think we have damage our reputation in the western hemisphere and with our wealthy, influential and globally powerful neighbour.

question: Since it's quite obvious what China and The Christie Administration motives are in this global chess game I've yet to understand the motive of Baha Mar's CEO. Is Mr Izmirlian and his Baha Mar 'friends' a 'Trojan horse' for our powerful neighbours to the north? AKA Economic Assassin? As a Bahamian, I'll understand, simply because The Bahamian Government should never 'sold out' to the United States arch enemy, and if it did decide to, why so cheaply? We still have a massive largely uneducated, and entitled populace problem, that can hardly speak english properly, must less Mandarin! Why not had the Chinese build a world class University to prepare our Bahamaland, our next generation for globalization that we're totally unprepared for in so many ways!

FDI is very important to the growth of our economy, however, rather than importing FDI and consultants to 'feed' us, why not prepare a generation waiting for FDI and consultants to 'teach us to fish'? Tourism?? Wealthy business people are 'creating' tourism by building water parks out of deserts! These old politician with their 1920's law degrees, were no match for Yale and Harvard grads, now you have Yale and Harvard grads speaking Mandarin? Who know more about corruption than a nuclear armed Communist country that have defied so many international laws to become a global force to be reckoned with? Certainly not The Bahamas government, they are tad poles in an ocean! If it wasn't for our geographical location, China won't even consider us! We have begun 'making love' to a black widow, this is just the beginning, after the 'sweetness' is over, the black widow always eats it's 'lover' it's not personal, it just the nature of the beast (Business).
