Firstly, don't you think that Bahamians should decide on our tax matters and not Biden? Secondly many foreign companies come here because there are no corporate taxes, just like many banking clients came here for the banking secrecy. We already lost many banks, now whatever is left will leave. Why would someone set-up a company in the Bahamas once it is taxed at 21%? You can say goodbye to all the IBCs. Some people who hold property through companies will soon be shocked to learn they have to pay 21% tax on any gain when they sell. The consequences of this will be catastrophic.
"Janet Yellen, the US treasury secretary, last week pushed for a minimum global corporate tax rate of 21 percent - something that would represent a giant, potentially unsustainable leap for nations such as The Bahamas" and to think that some Bahamians were stupid enough to support Biden. The blacklists are not far off and once again the Bahamas will have to capitulate to these threats and to get rid of the last advantage that we have over our competitors.
I don't think we want to be like Biden's America, with open borders, giving stimulus checks and free Covid tests to illegals immigrants, and soon they will all receive residency papers and be able vote for the Democrats to ensure the flow never stops.
Hummm strange that none of the criminal defenders are asking where were the body cams??? Maybe it's because the Farm residents did not shoot at the police? And where are the Biden supporters? Don't they also want open borders for the Bahamas?
So you support Biden who is for letting illegal immigrants into the USA and giving them residency papers, but you are against it when it's for the Bahamas. You are looking more like a Trumpie everyday!
