Bad reflection in the mirror Bahamas, take a good look at what we were given, and what we have done to it. Nothing to be proud about, much has been sacrificed, for the vanities of fools.
The Laws of the Bahamas were eroded one law at a time, one rule at a time, The only way to restore law and order is both top down and bottom up. Enforce ALL laws, cite every infraction, Investigate the finances of all politicians, Follow the dirty money trail, Those who would rule must fall further when caught out betraying the country. Seizure of ill gotten assets, payoffs, crony slush funds, all Treason against the people of the Bahamas.
We actually need such an act before vat is implemented! It is only 40 odd years past due. Also we need some draconian VAT type penalties put in place for corrupt politicians and Civil servants.
The exemptions under the H.C.A expired in 1992-3, and were extended under separate legislation "The Freeport By-Laws Act" as part of a host of tit for tat tradeoffs between the Port Authority ownership and Newly elected H.A.I.

In short, all government administrations seem to be willing to "burn the barn down" to get rid of the rats, while they created the rat problem themselves.
Like painting a ship while it is sinking. Clean up Government finances, clean up the bidding process, Clean up the fraud and waste, Don't just dump your legacy of garbage on the people who pay and continue to pay for Government incompetence.
"Secrets"?? Lay it all out Mr. Miller, if you are so the Champion of the Little man and Pot Cakes! Leaking information to the Press on the secrets behind all the Government doors is the greatest tool for the Massive cleanup needed to sort our poorly run country out! Escape the detente that has you all locked into each others dirty crooked little secrets. We need a snitch-fest, a come to Jesus festival for Government corruption Confessions!
