What recommendations can be made, as purposeful action against AI data centers?….. Stop using the cloud. Limit IT and AI use. Be aware of land usage in your area, on your island and speak out. Elect local and National representation that reflects values that align with being a sovereign nation. Be wise… be in control….choose: …. an independent nation of peoples who unite together in the basics of human existence; food, water, shelter/land, family and community. Or just keep scrolling, playing games, engaging in gossip, being distracted from real life, and in the great spirit of entitlement expect someone else to look after your needs, like government, numbers cartel, etc.
While as a Christian I have no issue with the concept of selfless service to our peoples, I do have concerns about titles that draw the psyche into a hamster-wheel of ambition that serves the greater, global, system. Things are not black and white; colonials vs servants is a narrow minded construct in itself. The reality is a murky ideology of human greed and hedonism woven into an utopic ideal of freedom and autonomy. We shall never be a sovereign nation if we independently scrounge for our own rights. We can only be an independent nation when we respect and serve the sovereignty of the individual together with the community of persons. We, as a people, apparently chose a party to govern us that we label as corrupt, with blatant disregard for even the appearance of transparency and accountability; a group of elites who would sell our own nation for the fattening of their pockets, people lacking a true sense of service, who ambitiously feed off the exploitation of their own “servants” by depriving them of an adequate paycheck to meet the cost of living. People who rather than protect the land for future generations hand out approvals to foreigners to wreck havoc on our Bahamaland! The above editorial is a divisive tool and I humbly suggest to the reader that we need to think with words that are more inclusive, constructive, progressive, and uniting.
Try hiring Bahamians ! For every hard working, diligent, Haitian worker there are 6 Bahamians who got fired for stealing, laziness, apathy, and rudeness. Sad, but true story.
“…abiding respect for Christian values and rule of law..." our founders envisioned, that would allow us to live in the freedom we all deserve! Our founders cry at Independence was to go make millonairs of ourselves, be drug-dealers, and not have to work. Tell me, where are the Christian values and rule of law in that? And how was becoming rich without a work ethic ever going to build a nation?
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 !!!
