"This is quite extraordinary for a neophyte to come and say this,” he said.. “Who’s he accusing? People in Fox Hill for breaking in his office? That’s who he is accusing? Is he accusing the PLP of breaking in his office? When you open your mouth, you have to have evidence of what you’re talking about. Where is the evidence?”
And, this is not a petty statement from someone who claims to be educated.and decent? Are politics and power like a drug, whereby those who can't handle it seem intoxicated out of touch?.

Something like "determined dishonesty."

Explain a bit further, if you have the time.
Thx

Excellent letter.
Spot on with who this is impacting.
And, you're right about the majority of the boaters. This is true about them cleaning up, picking up trash, etc.
Does anyone really not think that 99% of the serious Fisheries infractions are not our own people?
I'm not saying don't enforce the law, just let's be fair and reasonable about it.
Far too often we have our people in power who simply can't handle it. They abuse it. We see it all the time. Let them put on a uniform, and watch out.
And, with regard to the raising of the rates. Nobody with an ounce of business sense, who cares about this country, pulls a stupid stunt like this?
What idiot could not foresee the fallout and consequent comments and reactions from these "official government" policies.
How many idiots in government supported these actions?
Clearly, not one with any business education or experience.

"Dr. Darville has said the government is also stepping up efforts to recruit doctors and nurses from other countries, including India, the Philippines, and Ghana, to reduce dependence on any single source of foreign healthcare labour.."
And, the reason we need foreign healthcare workers?
Couldn't have anything to do with the pay, working conditions and respect, could it?
Whereby our own doctors and nurses are fleeing this country?
This is not the reason, is it?

Exposed, you are entirely correct.
Yes, it is sad to see those presiding over what can only be called a "terribly sick society" seemingly shameless over what they allow to continue.
The bottom line is that much of this self harm behaviour is merely one of the symptoms of a nation gone wrong.
There is no better proof than these statistics.
Sadly, the economic system of Capitalism will preclude any form of relief, since this economic system is at the very root of most of the world's problems.
Obviously, this isn't going anywhere in The Bahamas.
We can't even keep our politician's hands out of the nation's cookie jar, and we are going to have a truly Christian national conversation?

Excellent question!
With all the other things going on in 242, yes editor?

You are absolutely brilliant birdie.
Are you hiding a political agenda? Are you really smart, and just playing dumb?
Seems like you are supporting a Party, not the nation of The Bahamas.
"the outrage makes no sense." Say what, birdie?
Obviously, you didn't read, not comprehend, the news article.
And, very clearly you have never run a business.
How about education, birdie?
Do you not realize where the vast majority of money that runs this country, providing for every convenience you have birdie, comes from the US.
Hey, I don't like their policies either now, but only an idiot would not listen to their #1 customer. Seems rather stupid, doesn't it birdie?
It is rather sad to see your your ignorant ramblings, clearly dragging this nation down.
Personally, I think you are a PLP operative, since I truly don't believe there are people who are still as ignorant as you.

The biggest question I have is: How and why did it have to get to this point?
After speaking with a number of pilots, it seems that the designers of this test were clueless.
Our government was placing another odious burden on those working for a living. See, the pilots jobs actually contribute to the Bahamian coffers. Government jobs mostly suck money out of our economy. We do understand this simple concept, yes?
I must ask all Bahamians, "Are we here to help each other succeed, or are we here only to throw up road blocks for those who actually get up off their butts to do something?"
More and more, it seems to me that those in government jobs, including those in Parliament, are there to hold this country back,
The attitudes, the lack of friendly customer service, lack of transparency, lack of proper communication, and the lack of professionalism in far too many of our government offices, suggest to me that there is a schism in our society.
There are those who wish to make The Bahamas a better place, and on the other side, are those in government jobs throwing up roadblock after roadblock to hold the qualified people back.

Always next year!
Next election.
Next month........................
Bahamians are tired of the nonsense coming from these guys mouths.
Many of us cannot afford these bills.
Is it inefficiency? Corruption. Mismanagement? Deceit?
Who can we believe? Seems like nobody.
There are always the promises never kept.
Always someone to cheer for the PLP losers, who put a party before their country.
