Freeport has been on the skids for decades.. this socialist move to nationalize the Port will be the death blow.. govt never like the idea that a city existed outside nassau.. but check Eight Mile Rock or west end if you want to see the future. i wonder how a broke givernment with junk rstung will pull this off?
more discrimination.. these socialists.. what about disenfranchising of those who will have to pay new rates but no such consideration for them.. i bet everyone will reap same benefit.
glad PM forced him out. Petty is a model of the kind of politician we don't need in this country anymore. need to add the 2 defendants to that list now.
another runway? for what? another unbearable burden for the taxpayer.. i park by the water tank on jfk plenty sundays and i dont see all these flights that need another runway. dont they have 2 now anyway? probably not using them properly.. smh..
i cant believe bahamasair pilots have the opportunity to keep getting paid for 5 more years and need to negotiate it? thats the biggest raise you could ever get.. wow.
with at least 2 house members currently befire the courts fir matters, a dubious declaration is pretty small stuff. its the world we're in.. look at Trump...
it sounds like a panacea for all thats wrong but its a utopian concept. i don't see this in the reach of a small 3rd world country like us. how the hell can we expect all employers to pay all staff a minimum of $500 per week (according to UB study thats the nassau number)?

one of the first things people give up when they feel threatened are their rights.. this is a good example of how that may happen.
