Absolutely true. Fidelity only offers a "credit card" if it is 110% backed by a fixed deposit. How the hell is that a credit card?
A person would have to be a total idiot to deal with the commercial banks after what they did to so many people during Covid.
Look out Exuma, the commercial pirate banks see the economic boom looming for the family Islands and will rape, and pillage them like never seen before!
People have learned the hard way that banks are the biggest "legal" thieves in the country!!
PM pledges to strengthen immigration process...**AGAIN**!
Really?...Lol
Davis is better than the typical sweet mouth politician. This guy is a master of deception and straight-out bullshyt.
It is 2023, we have **always** had a systemically corrupt immigration system from top to bottom regardless of the PLP or FNM being in power.
All we get is lip service from our self-serving, so-called "leaders" and more of the same continues unabated. If there was even minimum transparency in government I'll bet Bahamians would be totally mortified at what is happening with the Department of Immigration and the humongous negative impact on the lives and well-being of our people and country.
The Immigration problem is not "one step forward, and two steps backward. It is all steps backward, twists, turn, dodge, crisscross, slide to left, cha-cha, and carry on with the treasonous policies of predecessors to the detriment of the nation.
The county is inundated with foreigners doing jobs unemployed, and suffering, Bahamians can do.
look around. There is, and never was any "public's trust" in Immigration!
The lack of efficiency and waste in the government is absolutely mind-boggling!
I know an individual who worked for the government that went to clock in at work every day and went back home for years. This person was paid every month but hadn't hit a lick for decades and is now collecting retirement benefits!
Corruption is rampant, people caught "stealing" face no accountability.
Our leaders should be held 100% responsible for how the people's taxes are mismanaged just like any company management.
These Sunshine clowns failed to mention that Bahamians were systematically equally locked out of investing in the Bahamas by both governments for decades!
Only now because the government is in deep, deep, do-do with the high volume of new foreign investors coming into the country in need of accommodation infrastructure is the government now asking Bahamians to invest.
Had Bahamians been allowed to invest in the tourism sector over the past 50 years, the country would have been in a much better position to provide the accommodations required to support the many new foreign investors headed this way.
*"It also appears that the expatriate has more rights in The Bahamas than Bahamians".*...**Nothing new here.** PLP and FNM couldn't give a damn about Bahamians! All they care about is Haitians!
*The Davis administration has taken a tough posture on work permits, with Prime Minister Philip “Brave” Davis saying in June that the government would crack down on granting them.*
Davis is typical of our politicians making grandstand press statements to appease anyone stupid enough to believe them, then secretly doing the exact opposite of what was said behind the people's backs.
**Same failures, different day!** We fail miserably as a sun destination. The opposition can always recognize shortcomings, make sensible recommendations, and have all the answers to countries' woes **....... until they become the government! .......** Then they immediately become just as lousy as their predecessors.
I tried to use the bathroom at Saunders Beach yesterday and found they were indeed closed. The beach was busy with many locals and tourists and the $300,000.00 bathrooms built by the FNM were locked up tight as drum!
The PLP and FNM have been talking about regulating jet-ski operators literally for decades. The ongoing jet ski fiasco will get short attention and blah, blah, blah, blah, from Cabinet only after someone is seriously maimed or killed.
Why do we continuously put the most ignorant, uncouth, getto rats, in the country on the front line of our tourism product? Is it a salary issue? How much do these people make weekly?
These unsavory characters must be properly policed and **weeded out** as a matter of urgency. There have to be ways of attracting higher caliber individuals to deal one-on-one with our bread and butter number-one industry.
To qualify as jet ski or hair braiding operators individuals should at minimum be made to complete the people-to-people program, understand they will be held 100% accountable for their actions, and will be immediately removed **and barred from interacting with tourists** for reckless or unacceptable behavior after 3 written warnings.

Keith Bell couldn't be truthful if he was nailed to the cross with Jesus!
This guy has proven beyond all doubt that he is not interested in the well-being of the country and the people of the Bahamas.
The really sad part about the situation that no one seems to realize is that Bell claims he acted with the approval of Cabinet.
