The **BIG** question here is why the government allows inferior food to enter the country that other countries will not allow in their own food chains!

@ messenger....You are talking pure steaming horsehshyt! Expat domestic workers from economically depressed countries are "worked" like slaves!

These people are so desperate to earn hard currency to help their families in poor countries, they change hats throughout the workday doing literally anything. It is common to see them cleaning the house one minute, cooking food the next minute, and washing cars after!

No Bahamian, American, European, Canadian, or anyone else except these Asians and Latinos will do that, AND no one should be expected to do so.

By your own admission, your mother worked as a "housemaid" she didn't and wouldn't have cooked the meals, wash the cars, and kissed asses as these low-life Asians and Latin Americans are doing in the Bahamas!

@ the messenger.......Your argument is total bullshyt. Every prison in Asia and Latin America is busting at the seams with thieves. People like you suggesting that all Bahamians are thieves are racist.

Bahamians were and still are well-known as excellent, loyal, domestic workers from Lyford Cay to every Island and Cay in the country for tens of decades prior to the politicians allowing Asians and Latinos to enter the domestic job sector!

The fact is that expat domestic’s come from such low standards of living they will literally do anything for hard currency. They will be maid, gardener, cook, asskisser, and asswipers, for minimum wage.

No American, Canadian, European, or anyone else would do that except these very poor people from economically depressed countries!

I don't see any unemployed foreigners begging for assistance. They are all gainfully employed living off the fat of the land created by generations of Bahamians!

**Politicians on both sides of the aisle are responsible for the unemployment issues, and hunger issues facing our country!!!**

It was the PLP and FNM politicians that allowed the department of immigration to issue work permits for low-skilled ex-pats to saturate the domestic job market and make thousands of Bahamians unemployed today!!!!

If we got rid of 60% of blue-collar domestic ex-pats, unemployment and resulting crime would dramatically decrease significantly.

But the politicians are more concerned about pleasing the foreign upper class than looking after the average citizen!

This "statistic" is as inaccurate as the recent so-called census. My household only received a letter shoved in the door saying they would return, while several family members were available at the time of the visit!

Many, many, more than 28 percent of Bahamians have skipped meals for lack of money or other resources!

The government is sticking its heads in a hole AGAIN talking out their backsides. We need to get rid of 15,000 ex-pat blue-collar workers immediately if we are serious about unemployment and crime.

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

The hotels should be ashamed to admit to this! No wonder staff needs to pilfer to survive.

LOL...The Bahamas is not a "real" place!

Here we go again. Another toothless HOA to facilitate another crown land grab!

There is no “immigration crisis to the PLP and FNM. Things are just as they allowed them to be.

The "crisis" is with the Bahamian people who refuse to accept "their" PLP and FNM purposefully created the situation we now face!
