On the Money Banker, black, white, all Bahamians have suffered under "selfish rule" I have not left yet, but I can see the day coming. As to the "new Government" i see old ways hard to break, a lack of abstract thought, and no crooked politicians in jail. Nor any stolen assets/proceeds seized. Same old appointees, same old verbal vapor, little action. Hell of a way to run a country.
We Jump for the IMF because every time we do they lend us more Money. Same story for 50 years. Same dog biscuit begged for every time. While we should, and could have told the IMF to take a hike, that possible position long ago evaporated. While we could have written internal rules and regs for compliance with two/imf/oecd/eu-epa etc etc, and not actually signed, we didn't, and have been lagging in every requirement that is a direct requirement on us now. Stupid is as stupid does, and we will never do anything ahead of the game, because it requires nothing of us NOW.
Power secure is a typical U.S. utility: Alt energy is subsidized and done to meet federal requirements concurrent with standard steam generation expansion. You want a 1 Gig steam plant? add 50 Meg in alt energy and the permits will be approved. The problem however, is the lack of knowledge and ability to think intrinsic in our elected and appointed officials. Surrounded by special interests that make their job easy: do nothing, it won't work can't be done, we don't want it. Solutions are being developed in spite of Governments and Government owned utilities throughout the 3rd world.
In effect he is saying so what? what are you going to do about it? And therein lies the problem. Will we do anything about it? Prosecute? seize ill gotten gains? Imprison? Bar from political office? Bar from Government office? These bastards are proud of what they do. FNM or PLP, same difference really, in some cases, just different personalities.
All of these Bastards are so interconnected and mutually dependent It will take flushing them all down the drain to make any meaningful progress. Like a bowl of spaghetti, hard to tell each one apart, so tangled up together. This Deepak Bhatnagar sounds like a winner........here for the slush and pension.
Only way they'll work is if they sever the ankle if they stray outside of their "house arrest" Maybe aught to be necklaces. Another "dumber than Dumb" moment, go find the kickbacks.
Where is our new more "liberal" solar policy? Who is writing it? Are we still going with the BEC/BPL wanting "dual Meters?" Is our "policy" as it was (briefly) still suspended? I see large corp entities moving forward, maybe a few households, is everything peaches and cream now? WTF is wrong with this country and its leadership?
