i am amused by this thinking that we should not stop throwing good money after bad... Bahamasair, ZNS, now BoB. we need W&SC and BPL but not the others.. businesses fail around the world every day.. why is it different here? the interest of a few should never subordinate the interest of the majority..
Big problem.. what reckless governments we have in the history of this Bahamas... you never borrow to pay wages, never. clearly we have committed to things we cant afford. until we learn to accept reality for what it is and not what we want it to be, we can never arrest this slide deeper into debt and eventually poverty for all..
changing the budget year was a dumb thing the Ingraham govt did. unless a snap election is called, we will always have elections in April/May meaning an incoming government has no opportunity to create their own budget. so this coming budget, 2016/2017, will be a PLP budget. with a 5 yr term, can a govt afford to lose 1 year to make changes?
Wilchcombe was one of the worst Ministers of Tourism we have ever had.. i cant mention a single new, not to mention, successful promotion program to invigorate tourism under his watch.. thats why tourism arrivals are flat and with more competition on the way from Cuba, he said he didnt see the threat.. typical PLP mindset..
they still dont get it... when someone is not getting the results you want, you dont keep asking them quietly behind some bush to resign, you FIRE them man.. kick him out as leader..
like i said in a,previous post, we dont have any enemies and even if we did, we are too small to counter any aggression... so, what do you think could possibly be the purpose of these items?
i agree with Miller.. people didn't vote as much for the FNM as they voted in protest against the PLP. arrogant Fred, corrupt Shane, corrupt and arrogant Jerome, snobby Alison, corrupt and arrogant Alfred, all are responsible. of course, weak Perry who didnt have the backbone and wilpower to fire the corrupt and who ran a govt of secrecy.. what a miserable bunch.. this incoming group we have to waych too like questionable Michael Pintard, Mackay in Eleuthera, D'Aguilar.. maybe others .. no time to relax i'm afraid..
sounds like the govt is equipping themselves for that inevitable day when they need to use this kind of gear on us.. after all, who else will they use it on? these guys look dumb, but thats just a ploy to throw you all off track... they know exactly what the plan is...
anytime you succumb to blackmail and give hand over fist what you dont have in the first place, unions are bound to love you... but fear not, the chickens always come home to roost and we will all pay the price in due time for writing cheques the Treasury cant honour...
Big government my friends.. this will continue the financial ruin of this country which by all evidence is already an absolute success... one of the few successes of the government...
