Ha Ha orders etc are essential but not for them. Must really be cutting into their revenue streams. Pathetic and short sighted. Can't extort if they're not present, also ignoring the fact that money is tight all around with unprecedented unemployment. Churches are proven hot spots for community spread. "The Lord helps those who help themselves" applies to the congregation, not the clerics.
Their statement does not resemble their state of affairs, a serious indicator of the disconnect from reality. The Port has become a useless quasi Governmental entity with a few profiteer/privateers at the Helm, with no plan but to Pillage. Middle management has that well figured out.
80% in 80 years, Yp, we gonna worry about that when we cannot think beyond lunch. Right. Yep, renewable energy. Still don't have a national policy. WE have BPL/BEC and URCA gerrymandering pea soup.
One can praise the lockdowns and curfews if you ignore the damage to the economy. Direct damage to tourism, direct damage to local businesses. The same confusions stemming from the multiple orders and amendments for G.B. were repeated in the abrupt Nassau Lockdown, which was aborted. They learn nothing from their mistakes. They learn nothing from repeated hurricanes. Grants for Coconut vendors? There will be a spike in private yard coconut tree raids! Guarantee they don't grow them or buy them!
Typo's found, per exercise clause. If it mirrors the Parks and Beaches clause, GB is exercise 5am-9am, other islands 5am-9pm. But that would be applying sensibility not possessed by the Author of the order.
The Health of your citizens can be considered IF you had the Health infrastructure to deal with it. As is they are overwhelmed, nor will they have any expanded capability. Under funding and Time are the enemies of that. In effect, Minnis is willing to cut the right leg off the patient to save the patient, while ignoring the Gangrene on the other limbs, and claim a cure. The Government cannot currently feed all those who are jobless, have no money for food, what happens when those numbers double? NIB cannot even make payments to those it should. The police have no clue what to enforce because it gets changed like babies pampers. Special consideration is given, taken away, and bestowed again. All the while people break the rules with impunity. If these ad hoc /ever changing rules are even legal.
They also chose not to consistently repair and renew their infrastructure. Lost hundreds of old poles in Frances, more in Jean, Wilma, Matthew and now Dorian. Shouldn't be as much of a problem now!
