Armed with this dsta (which is shocking news to nobody), one has to question the hundreds of millions of dollars being spent by govt to put state-of-the-art this and state-of-the-art that, in these places where nobody wants to live. another example of why small island socialist states become champions of debt.

De. Romer says its an ICAO requiirement. he says it ensures they know the regulations. that alone should be enough. why would a union not want their members to know their legal obligations? its inconceivable that pilots should get some kind of free pass given the responsibility of what they do. its scary to know that today you are putting your life in the hands of folks who dont know the rules.

Socrates says...

State control of everything is a blueprint for failure. the free market with government supervision to prevent collusion is the key.

Socrates says...

the socialists would like you to believe this ... residents no longer pay for the first 200 kWh of electricity used each month ... but we all know that's not so. we are paying that somewhere.

Socrates says...

perspective is a funny thing... if that 6.3% was a pay offer to one of our greddy unions, they woild say not enough but when a business does the same thing so they can survive, the talk is its too much...

Socrates says...

what a relief that a taxi driver leader no less stands up and says what the rest if us already know. very encouraging.

Socrates says...

it's really the height of hypocrisy for government who have BPL in a mess for this same kind of decision-making, to now expect URCA to force GB Power do the same thing. aren't businesses allowed to make a profit and plan for plant and equipment replacement?

I respect Mr. Christie as a former Prime Minister and wish him the best.

Socrates says...

price control is a tired socialist practice that has long gone. let the businesses compete on price and government should watch and make sure they aren't colliding together to fix high prices.. you achieve that with severe financial penalties for anyone caught doing that which fir these guys epikd start at $100,000 first offense. that will keep things in check

Socrates says...

what happened to that age old tradition where if you don't like how things are you pack up and leave? it never ceases to amaze me how people get hired and all of a sudden they think they have the right to tell you what to do... did they change the definition of employer and employee?
