Mr. Sands, your honesty is much appreciated. Our challenge is definitely a human resource issue and a nation-wide cultural work ethic and educational issue. Sadly, this is a generational problem, and the results, if we find ourselves on the right path, will also take generations to fix.
We need to forget about importing nurses and teachers into our country. Instead, fire every elected and permanent government employee in this country and The Bahamas may have a chance. That you are unable to honestly or intelligently address the root causes of this crisis, which will continue to grow, suggests a complete and utter failure of the so-called "leadership class". in The Bahamas. I appreciate your concern, but there are ways to deal with this crisis other than asking families to fix what shouldn't have gotten to this point. Yes, our leadership class has, and continues to, fail this nation.
And, we need to continue to attempt to educate our people to the criminal acts of those in the highest offices in the land. Likely, they do not truly understand any academic idea, but simply go along with the nonsense for the 5 years they seek to get rich.
So, these were the ones who got caught. How many are still sitting in Parliament? Maybe even the highest office in our land? Is this a stretch? Look around. One has to laugh, if not cry for this country. We have suffered not only a brain drain for many years now, but the truly decent have fled, as well.

Seriously! What are you trying to say, other than absolutely nothing.
