"Cuba had been popular but was then barred to Americans due to problems with the Castro regime.

So The Bahamas benefited being so close to the US.

Warnings to your Tourism Ministry should have been noted when President Barack Obama started to open the American tourist market to Cuba.

President Donald Trump put an end to most of that opening.

However Joe Biden may well again allow American tourism. This could seriously affect The Bahamas."

Yep, and can you believe that many Bahamians supported Biden and Obama. We love shooting ourselves in the foot in this country.

Biden’s plan of opening up Cuba to American tourists will divert millions of tourists away from The Bahamas. It will have a similar effect on this nation’s economy as the pandemic.

And just wait until he joins the Europeans in blacklisting us like Clinton and Obama did.

Biden is going to be worst for the Bahamas than any hurricane we have seen.

The government is unable to collect property tax which is the most simple form of taxation and one that cannot be avoided (you cannot hide a house), and people are talking about implementing income tax which is the most complex form of taxation and that can easily be avoided by the rich? The government can't run a post office for goodness' sake! VAT works because it is collected by the private sector. These are facts, so stop wasting your time talking about tax reform. The government will not move away from a secure source of revenues, where the cost of collection is paid by the private sector.
