4.4%??? Laughable. Not sure which grade 5 student is asked to guess what the inflation rate is but however they come up with these figures they must do better. 4.4%? ROFL. Think of it this way... almost everything we consume is imported from the US. Then we have to ship it here, pay duty (if it applies) then pay VAT. Then look at where else our products come from, South America, and some directly from China. What is the inflation rate in the countries we import from? Certainly more than 4.4%. US 9.1%, Mexico 9%, UK 9.4%, China 2.4%. So somehow we are getting better prices than the US? ROFL
The gov't needs a program to spay and neuter humans who also breed like dogs and leave the pups to fend for themselves. Boy how similar we are to our hotcakes. We also treat each other like we treat the dogs as well. Wow!
If one had to write a song about potcakes, foreigners would think the song was about Bahamians. Funnily, we also have plenty bums who bark at parked cars. Crazy the similarities.

Correct. We need to give the 'blue juice' to the two legged ones roaming around day and night, and doing nothing useful in society.

Absolutely. We will all feel the struggle of this global economic change. There's very little a single PM or even country can do.

Any talk of paying more in taxes upsets me to the core. They will spend more in friendly contracts and the results will be horrible at best.
