Sealice. I agree with you wholeheartedly. They take your premiums, make their profits, and fight you every step of the way when there is a claim. Not to mention increased premiums for all after a hurricane, whether you claim or not. Legalized thieves, who are supported by the banks in their mortgage dealings. More people should take them to courts. They never inspect your homes to determine value at the time of insurance, but tell you it is undervalued when you claim. Bullsh---ers.

I agree with your comment about the rantings of an old fool, but a threat of bodily harm (made publicly), is a serious matter. Minky has remained quiet, earning big time bucks from his crony contracts. The minute he is called out by the PM he is ranting, raving, and threatening. Yes, he should be at least questioned and warned by the police. Otherwise more may feel they have the right to do the same. On another note, I would put my money on Doc to kick his a-s, hands down.

They were tiefing the Church money too. Nothing is sacred.

Regardless of who ends up with ownership, this property will fall back to the EXIM bank, as there is no way in hell that they will achieve the occupancy levels necessary to service debts. Atlantis, the most prominent name in Resort business in the Caribbean, has difficulty with it's levels, and they have a lot more to offer than bahamar. This resort is too large, only offers a few amenities, is expensive, and will only further damage Atlantis fiscal position. Then can not both function profitably, with the market being what it is. Who would you rather bet on? A resort that has employed thousands, paid all of its bills and taxes, and has an excellent reputation worldwide, or one that has struggled to open, does not pay taxes, is inundated with PLP crony leases, and has no customer base other than what it can glean from other resorts. Don't put all your hopes on this being the redemption of our economy. A lot of empty rooms with no one to fill them. A screw up in the making since day one.

Once again, we are passing judgement without knowing the facts. There were two vehicles involved in the accident. The police have not advised who was at fault, nor confirmed that the child was not restrained by safety belts, or a car seat. I prefer to let the facts speak when then are known, and in the mean time, express sympathy to the mother and family of the young girl. If the mother was negligent, loosing her child is more than enough punishment for her negligence. But we do not know that yet.

Sickened. If you are arguing the point about children wearing seat belts, or infants not being properly secured in car seats that is fine. I support that. I do not support you telling the country, and your two girls, that a child is better off dead. No matter the reason. I was surprised they let your uncaring comments stay on press at all. No one had to tell anyone to remove them. They were disgraceful. I hope you never have to experience tragedy like this family did. And I also sincerely hope that you never have to read the comments about your family that you posted about this poor child.

Sickened, I drive this road everyday, and the speed limit is 45mph. Doing this speed in the left lane I am passed by vehicles in the right lane at speeds fast enough to make my pickup truck drift. It is insane how they pass and then cut across the lane only to cut back across after each car they overtake. Your final comment about an "uncaring mother" and" the kid is better off dead" is heartless, thoughtless,and uncalled for, no matter which way you present it.

It is a terrible loss for the mother and family of this child, and I express my condolences. This airport highway has become an eighty mile per hour race track, and reckless drivers, including trucks, and public service vehicles, weave in and out of lanes as if they have lost their minds. Unfortunately, more incidents like this are bound to occur, and it would be wise (and profitable for the government), if police were to set up speed traps along this corridor. Not knowing the all the facts (other than what is published here and on social media), it is heartless to condemn any person, especially those suffering immense grief, for this tragedy. Compassion, not criticism, is in order, as a child's life has been lost; no matter the reason.

I am at a loss to understand how the government, if it collected 7.5% of the premiums, should be responsible to refund 7.5% of the claims. The premiums were not 800 million. The claims were (and this is doubtful). Annual premiums are what vat was paid on (by the customer), and that is what the government must refund. I hope the govt. ensures that the vat refunds are passed back to the customer, and that they are wary of the insurance companies high deductible policy, as well as their practice of watering down claims based on biased adjuster reports. Insurance companies never lose, and could care less about the plight of their policy holders. Don't let them fool you.

If Brave were to believe his own words, he should be jumping for joy. After all, would he not fall into the "rich" category that he claims is receiving the most benefit.
