There is no way that the gambling houses produce more jobs than they cost our society. Money that would otherwise would be flowing through legitimate businesses that actually produce something of value for our country, has leaked out of the real economy and into the pockets of those who simply do not need anymore. Especially in this time of crisis. Quit pretending that you are most concerned for your workers. that we are all in this together. Everyone with their eyes open understands that the owners of the web shops are never satisfied with enough. What is the definition of a vampire squid?
Little wonder that we cannot move forward in this country. We continue, day after day, year after year, to continue to argue over the same stupid shite and still not come to any resolution. As if, the problems compounding on a daily basis are just not there. Do our kids have a chance here? Just asking.
In the same way John Rolle has limited money flowing out of the country, which is not a health issue, so too should we look at our more domestic outflows. The jobs provided by the web shops have always been at the expense of creating real jobs actually producing something that brings real value to The Bahamas. It is time for a reset and time to tell the web shop owners to take a hike. They do not care about The Bahamas and Bahamians. They care about their own pocketbook. Nothing more.
No they do not birdie. It is far too little in taxes they pay. Look at the governments own numbers. Do your homework before you write. God almighty gave our leaders free choice too. Do the right thing and help those who can't help themselves. Gambling is too often an addition. Especially in this country. Shame on you for being so duplicitous and using the lord's name to cloak your hypocritical ignorance. you have the freedom to walk down the road naked without a face mask? You gonna do it and say god gave you that right to the police officer who is arresting you?

Does The Bahamas attract persons with vision?
Or do they flee to somewhere else?
The numbers and reality speak volumes.
