But, based purely on relative economic strength and power, all other countries of the world would financially collapse long before the US ever had to bite the bullet and follow suit.
But does anyone have any idea who will be the first government employee to get laid-off because of our country's economic collapse? We should recommend to government that a statue of that poor soul be erected in their honour in the middle of Rawson Square.
The alternative is Red China and the Yuan. And I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if discussions along those lines aren't already taking place with the ruthless Xi Jinping led communist regime.
If memory serves me well, the first $100,000 went towards a very costly uninsured building that burned down; a building which Brave Davis assured the public was fully insured shortly after the fire that burned it to the ground.
Actually what Cooper is doing is much worse than just shallow talk. By talking big sums of money in the way that he has, Cooper is very deliberately seeking to deceive the less financiually literate among us (and there are all too many of them) into thinking the Minnis-led FNM government can somehow just magically borrow any amount money needed to give to them to make them happy and get their vote. And of course nothing could be further from the truth given the current dismal state of our country's financial affairs. Bottomline: Cooper is nothing but a mischievous lying scoundrel of the kind that has put our country in the mess that it's in today.
> Dr Virgil-Rolle, meanwhile, also confirmed that expatriate work permits who have been laid-off are ineligible for unemployment benefits. She explained: “To be eligible for unemployment you need to be available to work and look for another job.
So what is this lame-brained Virgil-Rolle confessing to here. Is she now saying that expats working in our country on a work permit have all along been subsidizing a part of the benefit entitlements of Bahamian workers? That has to be the case because there's no difference in the amount of national insurance contributions required to be paid by and for expat and Bahamian workers alike. This is tantamount to government imposing an unfair disciminatory tax on expat workers through the national insurance scheme administered by NIB. And the best excuse this lame-brained buffoon can come up with for this most unfair discrimination is that the expat workers are no longer employed as required by their immigration status and the terms under which their work permits were granted.
Is this woman for real! Doesn't she know that many of these expats can easily prove (and their employers of record at NIB would willingly verify) that they were laid-off or temporarily laid-off and our now stuck in the Bahamas and unable to return to their home country all becuase of the Red China Virus. Meanwhile they have no source of income even though all of their required national insurance contribution have been paid. Get real Ms. Virgil-Rolle!!!
