Spot on. I appreciate your reasonable and moral stance. Clearly those who oppose your editorial are lost, uneducated and swallowing the owned media hook, line and sinker. Both the US and Israel should be boycotted until they can join in the rest of the world's people. Bahamians, so close to the US are as brainwashed, as well. The level of D- thinking plays out in the Tribune's comments day after day. Ms. Wallace, thanks for standing strong and keeping your moral wits about you. No matter how lost most in this country are.
It seems as if the Bahamian government despises Bahamians and wants to make their lives hell. Government should be there to help Bahamians, not to stand in their way and throw up every roadblock they can. Does it seem like anyone with a basic education and modicum of intelligence is at the helm? The country seems to be floundering, and all we can do is to watch it flail and sink. Quite sad.
Malcolm Strachan, while your are absolutely right, you unfortunately are writing to a group that appreciates neither logic, learning, nor common decency. The Bahamas has utterly failed in most every metric available. The social evidence of this failing is on display in our papers each and every day they are published. Rape, incest, theft, lies and murder. The excuses are many. Sadly, we have a population that is uneducated, cruel, and hypocritical. We elevate criminals to positions of leadership and public office. We prefer to tear each other down, rather than build each other up. As a whole, our society seems unfit to raise children and those in leadership have neither the brains, wisdom or basic humanity to care about this in the least. We have gotten used to the bullshit coming from our leaders mouths. In a decent society, these idiots would be cast aside. Here, as in other failed states, they run for office. Time will not allow the monumental changes needed for us to enter the realm of the decent, before the waters swallow this nation. But, be assured, the politicians will be long gone and comfortable in their new found country when the shit hits the fan. We have a political class that has the mentality of mere children. Are these facts, or opinions?
Our thinking remains childlike and untutored. Dr. Minnis and those who think shallow like him. Why do we have to lag in every way possible? No moral compass. Few who understand their own faith. It is difficult to see our this country will survive.
The fish rots from the head down, Mr. Bodie. The foxes are the government. Taking you a long time to figure this out. Criminality is all we see from top to bottom here. And, you want different? Jokey leaders lead to a jokey populace. What so hard to see, Bodie?
A joke beyond a joke to listen to these so-called financial experts. Anyone who doesn't see where The Bahamas is headed is blinded by the bullshit fed to us by these people. No transparency, no honesty, and less integrity. We have a criminal government and a public too distracted to change anything. Sad, but true.
The government of The Bahamas is doing its best to kill the small man. This is due to incompetence, greed, and because they almost always get away with it. Glad that people are standing up to this nonsense. Tax the poorest is the way it is here. Time to stand up to those who feel it is alright to live high on the hog at taxpayers expense. No excuse for these outrageous rate hikes. None.
How many die by guns, or on our roads? How about heart disease and stress? How about the inability to pay for quality health care? Fentanyl has a lot of ground to cover before it ranks among our deaths as an epidemic. The math is important. As is the reason people take Fentanyl in the first place. There is a much larger sickness at hand.
