Every leader potentially knew what was going on, but chose to turn their head. The Cuban Doctors and Nurses did not negotiate their salaries, their government did. They were not in control of the situation. Can you imagine , you better work for us , we will get 80% of your salary. If you defect to the United States, your family in Cuba will be affected. What do you do? If you go to the states, your family is targeted. So, what do you do? You go to the Bahamas and work . You take home 80% and shut up. Sounds like slavery to me . But, a layman can see and our politicians can not.

Let’s not talk about the fights that occur there or how fellas make females feel so uncomfortable as they walk pass a group of them. You would think you were at Junkanoo where it is normal practice to gawk and fondle girls as they walk pass.

It is free market. Cable Bahamas Batelco, BEC and Water and sewage are pathetic companies that should be closed down Oh, don’t forget Bahamas Air. All pathetic companies with a poor product and P… Poor service. The Private Banks ….. a close Second.

The Doctors cannot and have to get what their government agreed upon. Think about it for a sec. They make the same as their counterparts in Cuba. It is a communist country so all Doctors make the same. The Bahamian /Cuban Doctors cannot defect because their families are in Cuba and will face repercussions if they defect and try to stay in the Bahamas or go to the states. It is not clear cut as one would imagine.

Wow, now the truth comes out. This was truly a no-brainer. The PM said, the government pays an agency and the agency does whatever. Man , listen. Anyone can see the writing on the wall . A layman could have listened to the PM and assumed he was playing dumb. Come on, man!! This is slave labour. Everyone criticized The Republican Party about their observation. Slave labour, that is what it is, plain and simple.

We are beyond this Mr. Cooper. The hammer needs to come down because this is putting the reputation of the Bahamas at risk.

Yeah, they entrapped them to take the plane , too. Talk about peer pressure. The prime minister was fumbling with his words. Does not sound like an individual whom has command of the Queen’s English. He was shaky at best and not convincing at all .
