It is odd tgough that the sane lawyers show up for these million dollar scams for want of a better word

Carnival, *is our turn to get the 200,000 "facilitation" money*

Bahamar, "*y'all cant fake the construction work better?*"

Nygard, "*we got our contract back, this stuff in the needle Ive injected in my arm, in front of the parliamentary members, feels really good*"

Oban, *dont mind the noise in the market, I just signed someone else's signature on a legal document in front of the PM*"

Pleaseant and Obie, "*empty warehouse*"

FTX, "*this is the start of the digital industry*"

Anna Nicole, "*where you get that watch from, any shingles left?"*

But Im convinced now that the clear and most present danger to our country, starting with Kwasi, then sanddollar, then the cashless craze, is people who have no clue about technology acting like they know and making billion dollar decisions on our behalf. It might rival a Dorian both could sink us in a few hours.

I want to see an accounting of the money for what was lost in the fire. Fires are known fraud covers. Not saying that it wasnt a real accident, it's possible that it was, but nobody who handed out the money should take someone's word that all the money was lost in the fire

What da hell this mean? Valuing a bag of air and a jar of sea water as an asset an trading it on the stock exchange? Didnt we just go through that movie with Sam?

**The definition of predictable:**

Everybody know, no matter how much money comes to the Bahsmas under it's current governance structure, none of it will get to the man in Bain town the maid in the hotel and the old lady in the wooden shack on the family island. It will all end up in the pockets of the lawyers accountants as nd real estate agents who guard the gates of the city to snag every foreign investor with millions.

And everybody know the very last thing you can expect a Bahsmian govt to do is protect the environment. Ask them how many hills we cut down for fill this week.

Werent we about to allow oil drilling in our pristine waters a minute ago?

From a Nassau guardian story:
"*When we think about regulation for a crypto business it’s different, it’s not like a bank, it’s not like a mutual fund or an insurance company,” said Edwards.*

*“We have to be honest and accept that that there are **some things that may not be as tightly managed and regulated as, in hindsight, as we would want them to be***

This is our response to every **predictable crisis, *who could have known?***. Everybody knew those guys didnt come here because they thought the Bahamas had a great regulatory structure. Everybody. Everybody knew crypto vakuation has very little linkage to any equally valued underlying asset. We've been here before in 2008 with derivatives. Everybody knew. Everybody knew Nicole was a cat-1 storm and cat-1 storms are predicted to exact minimal damage and up to 5ft surges. Everybody knew.

"***In hindsight, who could have possibly known?***

Wait, where's the concern about the seed money that was given? There was welding going on, was welding part of a personal business also? Not saying that there's anything amiss but we cant just lose thousands of dollars and not check to see if it was spent on junkanoo supplies or not.

Id like to see an audit to determine what was done with the seed money.

where's the money?

Crypto is just not real money. Sure someone gave it to you in exchange for your car, but where did it start? Did someone put money in a bank that was the equivalent of 2000 coins or did they simply open an excel spreadsheet and write I have 2000 coins worth 3 billion dollars! The person left holding the bag has air in their hands. The only people who make out are the ones smart enough to sell the bag before it burst.

"*we believe in time that outliers that misuse user funds will be weeded out by the free market,”*

That's an interesting statement from CZ

Now we know what happens when we boarded up in our houses. Probably much worse and much farther during a real storm
