The UK government has refused to divulge any details about the first ever death of someone infected with the Omicron variant, leading one professor to assert that the person likely died with Omicron and not from it....
Cayman islands, no VAT, no income tax and almost no debt:
"Moody's expect Cayman's government debt will reach 9% of GDP in 2022"
In other words the problem in the Bahamas is with government spending and tax collection, adding more taxes as we have seen with VAT will just make the matter worse
I remember the good old days when there was no VAT and the national debt was below 50% to GDP. But then our politicians declared that we needed to pay back our debt and introduced VAT. Oh the irony!

Not true, there are many nations with low government debt, Russia, Chile and Switzerland for example
And of course the model country that we should follow:
