I dont know, "*Insight*" implies some deep thinking was done that revealed some hidden truths, this article sounds like a speech from a campaign stage repeating the party line
Why is Halkitis denying that he owns an interest in the property? In the article nobody accused him of a conflict? Does a family member own an interest?
This article doesn't do justice to the word "Insight". The question is asked *who really has Bay St's interest at heart* then concludes that Chester Copper is right about everything everyone who has an opposing view is wrong and Bay St needs wealthy residents.
The most glaring ommission the author made in his search of who doesnt have Bay St's interest at heart is "Govt of the Bahamas". While they've raided NIB and BOB for ill advised concerns personal and private for decades, Bay St has been allowed a steady visionless decline culminating in the garish painting of the straw Flea market as a symbol of "*revival*".
**Bay St doesn't need foreign rich residents in high towers pushing residents "*further south*" and inland so they can be comfortable, what Bay St needs is parking and Bahamian shoppers**
Why wasnt it reported that this was the Pirate cruise ship? Theres no blame to lay on the company clearly the act was reckless but why do we do this thing in local reporting where we *appear* to withhold information in an attempt to protect special interests then the full details have to be a surprise in the international press? The news about an MP accused of rape is big news all over the Caribbean for example
"*linked to the Davis administration's plans to set-up a Large Taxpayer Unit.*"
I believe this is exactly what I posted in my "*stop the bleeding rant*", .ie. dont allow massive tax bills to accumulate. @bonefish told me I didn't know what I was talking about. I believe I advocated for a separate VAT account that could be monitored, possible the big companies already segregate VAT, but who knows. The one thing thats disturbing is the comment that "*it shouldnt be an issue for them to file in 15 days*"... I would have *asked* if it would become an issue before mandating it. If they post in 15 days how quickly can they get their VAT refunds processed?
I see a whole new batch of people using God as their "*in*" to politics. God divorced himself from politics when the people asked for a human King. Up to that point God had been leading them. They wanted someone they could see. So God gave them what they wanted and left them to suffer the consequences. So when I hear people talking about how they prayed or they dreamed a dream and someone show up to run in their constituency the next day, I see these people never read the bible. Or they just skip to the juicy part. God already give the remedy to heal the land, and it wasnt a political candidate.
