Doesn't really matter because there is no penalty of any kind for disclosing personal financial information that is for the most part either glaringly wrong or just plain rubbish.

A friend of mind who is a qualified actuary and is familiar with NIB's financial situation, believes working Bahamians today between the ages of 45 and 60 will never receive retirement and other benefits from NIB anywhere near what they will have paid into the national insurance fund by the time they retire. He also believes honest and hard working Bahamians today under age 45 will never receive a penny of the contributions they continue to be forced to make to the collapsing NIB Ponzi scheme by government and their employers.

WRONG. The root causes of the National Insurance Fund's failure are the massive amounts of corruption, fraud, outright theft and waste it has been subjected to ever since its founding by one government after another, with the current government certainly being no exception.

Nothing but hollow words. She needs to lecture her own husband who is not inclined to take any meaningful action on this most important matter, preferring instead to give it lip service. No sane woman in her right mind should vote for a PLP candidate in the next general election if PM Davis continues to walk away from this matter, preferring instead to hide behind the hollow words of his spouse.

Actually, the more important question is:

Can Bahamian workers continue to support a Ponzi scheme that is relentlessly bled to death by government corruption of the worst possible kind every time more contributions are paid into it?

The lion's share of loans made by National Insurance to government controlled corporations, departments, agencies, etc. were long ago written-off as unrecoverable. The cumulative amount of government related debt written-off since National Insurance came into existence is truly staggering to say the least.

And just think about the exorbitant health insurance premiums government departments and agencies are now having to pay for their employees and for which private sector taxpayers are having to bear the costs. It's all truly sickening!

Most Bahamians, especially children, were much healthier before the fast food franchises came to our shores in the 1970's.

Wendy's, Marco's, KFC, McDonald's, Domino's, Burger King and all the other extremely unhealthy fast food franchises should be paying the lion's share of the taxes necessary to fund the annual budgeted costs of the Ministry of Health. The addictive and extremely unhealthy so called 'food' sold by these fast 'food' establishments is just as addictive and deadly as the cigarettes sold to addicted smokers. Frankly, they should be taxed out of business!

And there is an obvious reason why the entire medical community does not speak out loudly against those profiteering from the sale of deadly products......it's because they too are enjoying great profits from all of the sicknesses and chronic diseases afflicting most Bahamians and their family members today. Sadly, most Bahamians are clueless about just how deadly the processed foods and sugary drinks sold by fast food franchises truly are.

No news here. Kim Aranha has always had her head deeply planted in the sand when it comes to ignoring all of the inter-breeding (genetic engineering) that man has subjected dogs to over the past 200+ years. Man's interference with the evolutionary nature of dogs has been driven by a desire to produce many different breeds for one purpose or another, including strength combined with innate aggressive beaviour. Pit bull dogs and other breeds like them are well known to be much more prone to unexpected moments of highly aggressive behaviour regardless of their past experience(s) with humans. This particular breed was bred for fighting until the death in pits while gamblers on the winner looked on; hence their name.

The mere fact that PM Davis and Fwreddy Boy Mitchell were so quick in their attempt to re-write the history of their political party and publicly heap much praise on George Smith's legacy says a whole lot about the very sordid character of both of them.
