The ultimate level of reasoning in a country that cannot provide the parenting, the education, the nutrition, the political and spiritual guidance necessary to raise a generation of people who have decency and respect for others.
The future is staring us in the face.

You mean like having Price Control go into shops to make sure they don't charge too much, but allowing Colina to make as much as they want on the backs of their customers? Something like that? Or no-bid contracts for health clinics, mooring projects and road works? Things like that?
Or, just realizing that most MPs are not educated enough to really understand how the world works and what is best for their constituents? That nearly all PLPs are out for their own riches and are headed for hell?

I think this administration sees the writing on the wall for The Bahamas.
They realize that this country is so far in debt, so corrupt, and so uneducated that there really is no hope for the future. Therefore, the Prime Minister is leading the way for every one of his cronies to take as much as they can from the Bahamian people, the IDB, and anyone else foolish enough to make loans and investments, as quickly as they can, before they get caught.
The list is far too long of egregious "errors" for it to be chance. There is a deliberate and premeditated effort to steal as much as possible from the Bahamian people.
Do we know who the high ranking government official is involved in the drugs and guns scandal?
Someone still in power and who hasn't changed his/her spots.

"Significant downside risks"
Akin to having sex without a condom and hoping for the best.
These PLPs have no shame. They will strip this country bare and leave nothing for anyone else.

Most all politicians merely do the bidding for the rich, or their dirty work. Here in this country, who really runs things?
Billionaires run the world. What more needs discussing? Davis, Wilson and Halkitis are useful idiots who have sold-out The Bahamas. They know this is true. That is why they are taking as much as they can for themselves as quickly as they can. A global depression, whereby billions of people suffer and die has no concern to the rich class. The billionaire class is happy to be able to buy assets for pennies on the dollar. When all bounces back, they will have a greater market share of the world's economy.
Don't you think that the US knows what this PLP administration has been up to, and how many hundreds of millions of dollars they have stolen from the Bahamian people? If you don't think so, go back to school.
Trump is being allowed to do what he is doing because it benefits the world's richest few people. Those people control the levers of all governments, all industry, all armaments, all police and military, all media. Who among us cannot see this?
Remember Divide & Conquer. They are happy to see the US enter a civil war, and for there to be chaos, which we call governance here in The Bahamas. Really think there is that much difference between PLP and FNM once they get in? These guys were all raised here. They are products of our educational system, our culture, our families, our politics. How are we really going to output something different? Garbage in - garbage out.
Those in the PLP are simply the worst of our educated class. No honesty, no integrity, no morals. Merely a desire to be as greedy as possible.

"Previous Ministry of Finance reports revealed that, at end-June 2023, the same four ‘sinking funds’ held a total $378.6m in total assets, of which some $141.3m were covered by the February 2022 repurchase agreement with the Goldman Sachs. That saw the Government pledge more than $200m worth of assets as collateral security for a foreign currency cash advance from the investment bank."

What are the assets pledged as collateral?
Why isn't this stated in the article?

This administration is a joke. Davis has no moral compass. He is the consummate politician.
Can't believe a single word that comes out of his mouth.

Why is it alright for price control to go into stores and have a say in their profits, but Colina can make as much as they want?
Good thing we don't push education here and do our best to silence all critics.

The insurance industry is a scam.
It is a money transfer scheme to take money from those who actually work and produce things to those who produce little to nothing.
And, many of these insurance agents and officers call themselves Christian.
What a joke.

These tariffs will definitely hurt the working people in The Bahamas.
But, they pale in comparison to the millions, if not billions, stolen from us by our own politicians.
The rate at which this administration is sinking The Bahamas has no comparison to the tariffs or to the sordid history of ill-governance of this country.
It is our own people who are robbing us blind and destroying any hope for our children.
If you don't understand that, that is the very problem.
