I am in charge of 2 small businesses. We have cut our staff hours down in half. My partners are seriosly considering leaving the country. They are Bahamians of expat decent. I am losing hope as government takes even more of our earnings.
The truth is that they (the government) don't care about crime, poverty, sovereignty. They care about power, control, money. If they cared at all, you wouldn't have written this letter. I'm glad you care though.
Economically, the facts are that, individually, we are better off keeping every dime that we make so that we are able to help ourselves FIRST and then decide where we would like to help others. Governments believe it is better to take money without permission and redistribute. However, do you see the redistribution? Is it approved by you? Is it benefiting you? Is the homeless or impoverished situation improving? Roads/ infrastructure? Crime?
It is not the politician's fault for the breakdown in the family unit, which is the core problem here. However, the political employees we have hired are perpetuating a broken system indeed!
And the amount of potential and later proven innocents the State kills is staggering, but I guess for many people it's worth killing so many who land on the wrong side of the law. Strange human behavior, all the killing.
