The rich don't really mind. They are already installing water backups, generators, and buying Starlink because the government has failed at providing these essential services. So long as we continue to elect politicians who have no education, no vision, no morals, and always want far too much of the pie for themselves, we will continue down this road.
I have seen for myself many tourists vowing to never return to some islands because we lack these basic amenities.
In addition, were any of these politicians truly concerned about their communities and their country, and additionally had even a grade school understanding of business, they would recognize why the Family Islands are suffering. If I didn't know better, I would think this is the way they want things. But, I may be giving them too much credit for any thinking anything at all.

As well, if we focused on true crime, instead of tying up our police and justice system with arresting people for marijuana gummies and weed, perhaps we would make some progress into this century. I was recently in Canada, where marijuana, and gummies are legal. Never saw any police, and never felt unsafe. Could there be a connection?

You are completely correct.
Add to that this idea of Bahamianization, whereby we focused on something other than qualified people to staff our workforce and positions of leadership.Any competent manager looks around at who are running things and who is in charge and sees that immediately.

Is there any crime that we cannot commit in this country?
And, get away with it..........
Bahamians should just quit voting.
It gets worse each and every day.

Dear PLP politicians,

Please stay the hell away from any place that needs help.
Just send money and material assistance.
Your presence does absolutely nothing to improve any crisis situation.
Sit down, sit small and try and learn something that would actually help this country.
Thus far, you have failed on every single aspect of making The Bahamas a better place.

We will continue to transport our old and injured in the back of pickup trucks as I have done a few times, to a substandard clinic, and then to the airport to have them flown to Nassau.
This government is an utter failure of lying bastards. Every one of them.

It is not incomprehensible Steve, if you realize that most politicians are criminally inclined and do not have the intelligence to see past their overfed bellies.
They do not work, yet expect a big, fat pay

Yup!

Another inarticulate, lost comment by a fool.

100% Agreed.
No good can come to The Bahamas so long as Mitchel is in a "leadership"? position.
Something has happened to his brain.
