Do not care and do not give a sh$t. The Bahamas gov, retailers, and consumers hung the agri sector out to dry decades ago and no one cared. I can not wait for a Walmart to open up in Nassau. I think it should be a national priority. It is all about the consumer right? Until no one has jobs to be able to consume anything. I guess I could always get me one job at road traffic or the post office or something.

Shame is the bribes are not to do illegal things but, to just get the regular everyday legal things done

Who making money off of this?

I do not know when our government and government offices will realize it is often the bureaucracy and headaches to get anything done in this country that is by far more of the problem than the fees or taxes. So many arbitrary rules and steps that often make no sense at all to anyone. Just make it easy for people to pay.

Not sure why this is shocking I have been telling people and government officials about this going on for decades. No one seems to care. When Brazil had that huge corn beef scandal and the rest of the world including China sent it back to them The Bahamas grocers still proudly placed the product on the shelves for people to buy and consume and the government issued a little warning from DOA. Buyer be ware!

Why do I have a feeling everything will get more complicated?

Maybe PharmaChem Technologies pharmaceutical plant partly because of high electric costs. Charging your existing large users more is crazy. Anything else in the world and you get a discount for buying more/buying in bulk. This is like cutting off your nose to spite your face. The governments new fuel rate charges are the same thing. What happens when all the large scale users close, install solar or wind and the utilities lose their biggest customers? Why would you try and hurt your biggest clients?

I have never been physically robbed of cash but, I have had my credit cards hacked, bank accounts hacked and have had many instances of digital theft. I venture to say you will be hard pressed to find a person that has not been the victim of credit or debit card fraud. Then you have the nightmare of weeks and months trying to get your money back from the banks. These people will say anything because they making 3-5% on everything and selling your data as well.
