Another translation: "Ruling elite politicians like us must be careful what rhetoric and hog wash we feed our lowly D minus educated and undisciplined supporters lest they become frustrated and aggravated to the point of inflicting violence on someone."

Interesting to note that the brother of the deceased believes the deceased was in "the wrong place at the wrong time." This may well be a euphemistic way of saying the deceased was killed while "screwing around".

I think you mean "right in front of your very eyes" or "right under your very noses". No matter though, your point is well taken and basically describes the standard game plan the highly developed countries have indeed been using for decades now in exploiting for their own benefit the 'national assets and natural resources' of the lesser developed countries. Of course, in order for the game plan to have its intended consequences, the targeted lesser developed countries must have greedy corrupt political leaders and other key government officials who are willing to betray the trust of their people in exchange for their own personal self-gain obtained by fraudulent activities of one kind or other.

If the jet was owned by a U.S. LLC and Dr. Munroe or another official of BFM "checked the box" for U.S. income tax purposes whereby the corporate veil is effectively lifted, then everything (all liabilities) simply flow through to the foreign (non-U.S.) beneficial owner of the U.S. LLC.

Both Freds need to end their war with each other and instead make love to one another! (Oops. Can't believe I just wrote that....just the thought of these two getting together to make out makes me shudder!)

Like his brother Paul McWeeney, who is now the outgoing managing director of Bank of The Bahamas due to his role played in granting loans to friends of the Christie lead PLP government that will never be repaid and will therefore be borne by the Bahamian taxpayers, Sean McWeeney could not care less about right from wrong and certainly has no respect whatsoever for the Bahamian people and their desired way of life. The poison espoused by Sean McWeeney's misguided intellect over the last three decades even has poor wordy Perry Christie now coming across to the public as a baffling looney tune whenever he tries to wax eloquence of any kind. Too late though for Christie to find any principled advisers....the damage done to him by Sean McWeeney and others like him is irreparable. Those who think they can so easily and deviously manipulate the masses for their own benefit typically end up getting what they deserve in life and after.....

Now Christie will be coy and tell you that he said nothing about BEC in his mid-year budget speech because he is (was) on the verge of making a public announcement about the government's new partnership with a foreign private sector enterprise for the transformation and ongoing running and management of BEC. What a joke! Anyone who does an ounce of due diligence on the foreign private sector enterprise selected by Christie and his government (or should I say Brave Davis) will quickly come to the conclusion that the Bahamas is indeed in very deep trouble.

Let's just start with the $27 million plus that Leslie Miller and entities/individuals closely related to him supposedly received from Bank of The Bahamas and never repaid!

And what about BOB's duplicitous incompetent imbecile Chairman, Richard Demeritte? He's a worthless sod that should have never been appointed Chairman of BOB by Christie and Christie knows it! Demeritte too, needs to be put out to pasture asap otherwise BOB may as well shut its doors.

Correspondence from CBB/Wendy Craigg to BOB/McWeeney clearly shows CBB has already accused (and demonstrated beyond reasonable doubt) that BOB's management team prepared materially misstated financial statements for the last three years. The fact that Ernst & Young (E&Y), as BOB's external auditors, failed to detect and mention the material misstatements in their audit reports is a separate matter for which E&Y itself should be held accountable by CBB and the stakeholders in BOB. Mudda_sic is spot on in his observations and remarks.
