The Engineers and Management @ BEC are the main objectors to Solar, Alternate energy
and Grid Tied solar!
While a little lip service has been heard via the press
behind closed doors objections fly.
Remember, it is better you do without than for they to lose control.
As it goes in every aspect of endeavor in the Bahamas.

And proper drainage for heavy rains!
And a trolley system for tourists and residents alike!
An overhead mono-rail from one side of town to the other!
Air-conditioning that works,
and $.06/Kwh for power!

The sane option is grow a set and shut them down, seize all the assets of those owning and running the number houses. That aught to blow your 12 million a year revenue out the door!
Not like they're unknown or anything! You go directly to them for campaign financing every 5 years......
Next we'll have the drug traffickers seeking the same pathways to legitimacy.
The Bahamas is so screwed, perhaps we can approach the Hague to recover all the money they've pilfered and stashed internationally since day one.
TIEA's should help with that, recovering that would help with National debt levels.

Las vegas has attractions for gambler and non-gambler, family oriented,
and first rate food, museums, good grief the whole city is the attraction!
90% of Nassau is to be avoided!
Herein lies their pitfall:
It is a Casino model by their own admission, outdated and defunct, like their thinking.
The Casino model has been perfected way beyond what we can offer and by others.
Hell, they just went to Las Vegas to learn how they do the Gambling thing!
Or was that for Perry's Birthday? can't remember.....

Great, let the courts stack another few thousand on top of the few thousand currently in a prison built for 400.
Properly segregate hardened criminals from those awaiting trial or those sentenced for non violent crimes.
Listen dude, this ain't rocket science, build a prison for 10,000
Instruct the judges to cut waaaay back on bail for capital crimes, robbery with weapons, crimes against the person.
The threat of long term imprisonment with no Week ends out or easy street while awaiting trial
will curtail some, which is better than your track record so far.

Like the spandex seen desperately trying to hold the cellulite together,
the Morals within the Bahamas are stretched beyond recognition!
The LGBT movement is but a symptom of society in decline,
Like the symptoms so evident at every turn on the street.
Historically speaking,
we are on the same track as every other civilization
that has gone before,
the defining word being gone.
Erosion from the bottom through ignorance,
from the top through greed and avarice.
While we have collectively abandoned our youth,
we complain about what they have become?

Look at how things "evolve" when one completely ignores the law.
Web Shops, Chicken shacks, Fish fry, Zoning laws, Private property,
Good grief can we get nothing right?

Yep, not register but also close for the first two weeks of Jan,
Govt treasury will have a coronary!
Seriously, refusing to register will bring the VAT macoute after you,
but with no revenue, there is no fraud.......
VAT is just the beginning folks, mark my words.

On Auto prices 11% higher under lower VAT rate

All of the ruling elites children went to QC, a few to St.Andrews,
Funny how they would dismantle the system for the rest to follow.
There are a few good teachers left, no doubt,
but by and large, not dedicated, 9 to 3pm at best.
Hell, they get more days off than anyone else,
Including "grading days"!
Teachers back then did homework grading the Kids homework, on their own time!

It is everything That Perry HASN'T done and everything he has (wrongly),
that will cost the PLP the election,
So, 8 Licenses to be granted at some cost,
what happens to the other 3?
Continue operating illegally, with impunity?
Or get locked up and shut down?
How the hell can you legitimize these,
but not the others?
How screwed up can your thinking be?
The great PLP laundering scheme for Cronies Act!
Overnight legitimacy for those who donated to the coffers of......
