Actuals lower than projections, point remains

I'm lost. How big is this school? It's been 2 years since the govt took office and approximately 7 years since hurricane Irma. Why disappointed? Shocked would be more accurate. Pointless asking why, either the contractor screwed up or the govt wasnt paying the contractor.

Speaking only on the merits of a juicy well seasoned baked chicken, I dont see the issue. Now if it was being said that we'd have sausage for christmas (yuck) that would call for weeping and nashing of teeth. God save us from the day, how hath thy fallen oh Babylon, because we'd have the bread and gas lines previously economically wealthy Venezuela started experiencing maybe 5(?)years ago.

I'm convinced the only way to save this country is to remove our economic health out of the hands of these hastily chosen seat warmers who dont have enough time to review a proposal for a fuel hedge. And that can happen through innovation. Also convinced that's why theyve stifled innovation for so long. It's okay if you're selling cakes and applying makeup but if you might touch on millions, we cant have that.

First truth, **insurance wont prevent bad driving**. The accidents will continue to happen as long as people who cant drive can by some miracle obtain a license. They will continue to happen until the presence of the police is felt prosecuting people for the minor road infractions. They eill continue to happen as people drive under the influence of marijuana and alcohol.

**The first goal is not to have more insurance to cover the multitude of accidents. The first goal is to lower the accident rate.**

The most troubling aspect and the most telling sign is extremely bad news. With tripled prices on practically everything. The govt collected less VAT. With 8 million record tourists, the govt collected less VAT. With gas near 7 dollars, the govt collected less VAT. The numbers dont lie. Now they want to make up for the losses by charging the highest grossing organizations a tax for their inability to reach an impossible new reporting deadline. And in addition tax businesses and consumers an extra 40 cents per pound for all air freight. When businesses pass this cost on it will be more than 40 cents. Because that's what they do.

**Theres zero price deflation**. The gentleman everybody is now quoting to tout "good news", couldnt even say where this mysterious deflation was occurring. Super Value on the other hand said only corn beef has reasonable prices. "Corn beef", that's it

They most likely mean consumers cant be shocked because theyve seen food costs tripled for a few months now. Who would be shocked after 6months of this? Disgusted, yes, but shocked, no. That's what they probably mean. Its inexplicable that Solomons can offer prices 2 dollars lower on the same item, same brand. The stores are the same size so the *theres nothing we can do* seems a little weak.

It's not about hiding anything. It's about understanding what has to be done, how long it will take,, do you have the time to do it all and sufficient people to do it in the time. If someone asked you to become an astrophysicist by 2030 for example, you'd also be "*doomed to fail*" even though you have a brain.

This makes no sense. According to this article this company will be doing the work of customs all goods will go through them for **inspection **. I dont know if that makes anyone else uncomfortable, I assume customs officers are subject to some strict guidelines under the law and also go through special training to perform their duties... **what is going on in the ministry of finance. where is Brave Davis?**

That baby looks like he only care about the camera.

But seriously noone has said anything about the nature of the injuries, are they "only" disfiguring injuries or are they injuries that might cause a disability?

Not that it makes a difference, but Im curious why the animal attacked the child, did it go seeking to attack or did the child approach it and the animal did what animals do. Moot because the animal shouldnt have been there but still curious
