Why is it Archbishop Patrick Pinder and other so-called "religious leaders" who wouldn't step up to condemn the systemic corruption or nepotism that has destroyed our country and people expect us to trust them?
Politicians and religious leaders are the reason the world is in a mess today!
This is heartbreaking! People should not have to repeatedly beg the government for assistance.
Director of Labour John Pinder estimate last month that the jobless rate is around 40 percent is about 20% too low. The jobless rate is more like 60%!
Most countries are purging themselves of low-skill blue-collar ex-pats. The Bahamas definitely needs to follow this practice. There was never a reason, and we simply cannot afford to have ex-pat gardeners and domestic workers at this time.
Nobody can identify any Haitian owned businesses that employs a single Bahamian, why the hell would we be stupid enough to give Haitians political power?
Our country has been stuck on stupid for so long, it's now normal for so called "intelligent" people to accept the dumbest ideas out there!
The Bahamas proximity to 400M north Americans and easily achievable potential to becoming a competitive air transit hub, opens doors to vertually unlimited opportunities!
$3billion is not a large number considering we should have been the leading competitor to Florida's tourism, retirement, medical, silicon, green power etc' markets decades ago. This is the type of ventures the government should be eagerly pursuing.
On the contrary, Dionisio D’Aguilar having been involved in the hotel industry is probably the only individual we've had as minister of tourism that has some level of hands on experience and does have a clue! Unfortunately, he inherited 5 decades of asinine stupidity from predecessors that spoiled the cruise industry by allowing them to believe that the Bahamas could not survive without them. The truth is the cruise industry cannot survive without the Bahamas and other resort destinations.
This is another classic example of the proverbial "tail wagging the dog" situation common in the region when dealing with corporate entities.
