But cellphones have also shown us those asleep, those eating, chatting, joking and not paying attention to the business they conduct on our behalf.
Perhaps the maintenance of house decorum is maintained or degraded by those who sit.....
Media has not degraded our society, it has merely opened the window on the degradations of men.

He obviously has never heard that good news is kept to oneself, but bad news spreads like wildfire.
Get off your backside and go offer to register the NGO volunteers both Foreign and Expat spouses as they COOK and feed your Immigration staff every day, and continue to do so every day.
Work Permit? go thank each and every one of them!!!

Meanwhile the dept of Environmental and Health services is spraying for Mosquitoes with Malathion, a toxin, with no public safety announcement to remain indoors with windows closed.
What of people with asthma, and other respiratory ailments, small children etc?
Same as the Government overall, no press releases or public statements to help people help themselves.

Medical supply shortages in the Public health system are due to accounts payable to vendors
running beyond 90 days.
Since the 1970's Lands and Surveys had no complete maps of any island because the vendor would hold out sections of each island pending payment in full.
Can you blame them?
And this illustrates a critical piece of Free Healthcare: to give away for free what must be paid for is a recipe for permanent shortages.

Sensible enough, which is why Government will probably ignore it.
Having said that, will political connections and contracts awarded be kept free of the padding and insane costs the government loves to pay for anything they do?

And who created the problem in the first place?
and who has created the xenophobia?
They are one and the same, tho the names may change.
And we elect them without scrutiny or question.

The_Oracle says...

First find your own credibility, then question that of others.
If there is no credibility it will show itself and then steps can be taken,
the only impediment to those steps would be omitted from any contract the Government signs.
We all know how well they write contracts........

Within the scope of Freeport Under the HCA large private subdivisions were created, which while subject to the GBPA as the "municipal Government" are administered by the Developer.
In this case it was a foreign owned development in which the foreigner was leveraged out by political interests, David Wallace and David Thompson, both former FNM MP's,
Now basically slum lords. Also others possibly.

No Different than Government pumping up xenophobia against Haitians.
We are too fast to buy into poorly formed Political "policies" hoping to overcome Bad long standing Government Policies.
The Government professes to be the solution to all that ails us, when in fact they are the root of all our problems.
The pre-requisite for those who would govern should be preclusion from Running for election!
