Exactly - ALL transfers of funds out of this country should be met with a 10% tax, excepting transfers directly to recognized colleges or other school and recognized product suppliers such as Home Depot, Georgia Pacific, etc.
ALL - to ANY country to ANYONE for ANY reason even health assistance. No exceptions. OR we can just choose to die as a nation from the attack of locusts.
Bogart, you itching to get expelled from The Bahamas - LOL. You are right, as usual. My suspicion is that all branches of RBC will close before year end except one main branch in Nassau - which will not necessary occupy the same space as the current HQ.
The problem with Bahamians is even after hearing story after story after story about any particular business in this country - they will still patronize them just because they personally have not had an issue. They feel quite content to allow their brethren to suffer. Well the overall suffering is now reaching a level that the stink is flowing into their cozy little nests too.
OR people can just remain as silly and ignorant as Conan O'Brian and ignore the suffering of people in these places and just use them as political pawns. For a sample of true insanity, check out this related link:
Tal, Sheeprunner, Deddie, and Aegeon if you guys think so highly of Haiti you ought to move there. I would personally buy you a one-way ticket.
Note carefully though that nobody is picking on Haiti. Everyone wants Haiti to become a wonderful country and for its people to have great rewarding prosperous lives. I do too.
However, you cannot fix a problem unless you admit you have one and define carefully what the problem is. If you guys' attitude is that Haiti has no problems - then there is no hope for improvement.
Perhaps Mr. Smith could cite the chapter or section of the Constitution where we can find the phrase "citizens-in-waiting"? He should understand that no matter how many times he uses those words, they will not appear in our Law.
Secondly, the article says "He told The Tribune he was sent to “hell” by the Bahamas government, and..." Is he sure it is Hell, or could it perhaps just be a "shithole" like The Donald says?
Ask him if he sees any pregnant women there? Is he advocating for children's rights not to be born in "shitholes" or in Hell? Probably not. Nobody cares about those millions of children in Haiti, so what makes him so special?
Bogart, an illegal thing done by an illegal becomes legal under the rule "Two wrongs make a right." LOL
The article says " ...adding regulations have also been drafted for the welfare of detainees at the Carmichael Road Detention Centre (CRDC)."
So in other words, foreigners will get welfare and decent treatment at CRDC but bahamians at Fox Hill Dept of Colonerections will continue to get what they get.
Yes it did and almost every time the Auditor General opened his mouth, he was basically told to sit small.
Things are being audited now by private enterprise. It will be interesting to see if the new budget allows for more staff at the Aud-G office and more equipment etc. Also legislation changes to give that dept some teeth, some power and not be just like the Central Bank a few years ago which just kept writing letter after letter to BOB but being unable to stop the bleeding.
Our people and hence our government has a real issue with delegation of authority. If the boss is out to lunch, ya gats to come back later. Nobody can tell you how much an hour that tractor is rent for. Heck the gal ain't even know her boss is rent tractor.

BahamaPundit - you see the situation clearly that others every day are deliberately shutting their eyes to.
Why do Haitians here or in the USA have so many children? Shouldn't they instead save that baby-food money and send it to Haiti to help improve Hell?
