Please explain why your party just lowered VAT on real estate transactions above $2 million and simultaneously imposed VAT on breadbasquet items? Maybe you should have voted for the FNM.
The problems with the Bahamas are, low compliance with tax collection, corruption, and one of the highest rate of civil servants to population in the world. This is what needs to be fixed.
Exactly this is protectionism at its worse. The Bahamas is the only financial centre in the world where foreign attorneys are not allowed to practice. Only in the Bahamas!
Please explain the rationale for hiring an expat instead of a Bahamian when work permit fees can run as high as $15,000 per year, you have to pay their plane tickets and other perks?
What about the VAT reduction "election ploy" with the removal of the exemptions? They all do it, then they accuses each others of doing it etc. Poor Bahamas....

Pure socialist BS as usual. Caymans have less taxes than the Bahamas only 38 million deficit in 2020 and a better standard of living.
