We are constantly told …”climate change” and the associated risk of more bush fires. As an island nation are we not behooved to consider the firefighting needs of every island? Is it not more efficient and cost effective to think about a “super scooper” plane and all the sea water we have?
FNM did not give us transparency. PLP did not give us transparency. The only person who might have done so got threatened and was made to step down by murder ! The grip on this nation is EVIL !
I applaud the Government for finally appreciating the true worth of our beautiful country ! The people who are most upset at this rise in fees are those who come to have a free life. Of course they are upset…they come to a five star venue and expect not to pay. Free room, free fuel, (our trade winds) free entertainment and adventure, and free food! Without these entitled free-loaders we can generate a truly 5 star experience for our more respectful guests. Our fisheries stocks will have a chance to recover, our small entrepreneurs can better gauge a more stable market, and respect and privacy beyond the high-tide mark on our beaches will prevail. As Ms McIntosh said herself, “Canadians….are not the biggest spenders”. This country has BIG spenders who want to come and enjoy Paradise but are often deterred on their first visit by the disrespect they are shown by this particular demographic of boater. Cruise ships, small day-trip fishing charters from FL, and small sail-boaters do not bring the revenue we need as one of the most unique nations on the planet with no commodities or industries to prop up our infrastructure spending. It’s all about the GDP that WE NEED !!!
How much did the MofH say I could get for my kidney? Cost of living going up, can’t afford a home, barely afford food. Might not help me tho, since we are a nation that has never stopped the stream of illegal trafficking, and that whole supply and demand thing comes into ply.
Meanwhile some young entrepreneurs with really good, nation building ideas, can’t get a capital start-up rung on the ladder and our abominable GDP and National debt keep the poverty noose around so many necks, with shackles to our people’s ankles !!!
How you could have a “surplus” when you are in debt. What school of economics Dey goin’ to? Delusional thinking on both side cause who tinking we got a good economy cause some person say be got “surplus” ? Every Bahamian who eats food know the cost of it! Every Bahamian trying to buy house know the challenge! Every Bahamian with a health problem know the doctor and the hospital gonna suck ya dry! Drug money flowing and illegal gambling money flowing! International money laundering flowing! And foreign worker money flowing! The well dun dry fa Bahamians! Both Governments have failed, are failing, and unless we change dem out….will fail us!
“The Ministry of Education is collaborating with the Department of Information and Technology to implement the new ID system.” Just another system to be implemented on a society that is becoming more hedonistic, self-centered, and essentially violent and disrespectful because it is God-less. Left to our own basic nature we are nothing more than beasts needing to be contained, ID’d, and managed.
The loss of any life is deeply sad, and condolences go out to those who are grieving. The violence associated with a loss of life is also tragic. Though all the facts are still emerging, according to one report a young suspect was being seen by a Counsellor for verbalizing murderous thoughts towards his father. He was seeking help in a positive way. Apparently the Counsellor said he should talk it out with his father. If this is true, my concern is that not only do we have a growing mental health issue since Covid but that we have an inadequate understanding of the Best Practice methodology for healing the psychological and psychiatric issues at hand! Who sends an angry man to see the cause of that anger while he is contemplating murder? Gangs, drugs, money, corruption, we have an abundance of such criminal behaviors, just as we have an abundance of childhood sexual and violent abuse, trauma! Anger can well up to an irrepressible degree when these crimes against us have no proper recourse!!! Now we shall lose another life (or two) to our dysfunctional criminal system. The loss of any life is a sad thing to our community/society/nation.
