Maybe he should ask if the law allows him to charge the demand charge to business who need to then build their own backup generation for BPL's shitty service.

Just put NIB to 100% of salaries now and get it over with. That would solve the problem.

bcitizen says...

NIB has become nothing more than a basic income tax. Call it what it is. Government just takes the money and invests it in non performing government programs and buildings. How much more do they think individuals and business can take? The business pays about 2/3 of the NIB contributions and the employee about 1/3. Remember when Minnis first became PM and that video of him touring the NIB office? How many people they got working in that place? They had people inside broom closets sitting at a desk.

Yes thank you. Now please get rid of masks and tourist visa and tests.

All the reforms that need to happen within our government can be done without changing to a new system. The Senate needs reforming and The Bahamas itself needs to federalize somewhat (more freedom from the grip of central government). These are the big things that need to change in our government. Changing head of state makes no sense other than just emotional gratification. You really want another elected Politian to mess around with? I mean the politicians we have had over the last 50 years sure have done a bang up job.

I have no more words for this stupidity. The country is about to go bankrupt, people have no work, people have no food, people are dying of depression and stress and these people just hanging on to this garbage. Where is her data about the masks give us your sources? Most studies show little to no effect.

Government is one of the biggest drivers to the cost of goods, duty, fees, business license on gross, port charges, inspection fees, having to buy someone lunch just to do their job. So much red tape all costs to business. Mandatory corporate company lawyers. Businesses are the VAT tax collector for the government. Does anyone think that administering that is free to a business? Just the elimination of that stupid penny has cost business money with little accounting blips etc. that need to be dealt with. Government needs to look at their own self and not private companies as to cost of goods in The Bahamas. NIB rate increases with another one coming soon. Running and maintenance of backup generators because, BPL sucks so bad. All extra costs to Bahamian business and ultimately the consumer. My suggestions to lower prices to shut down the price control department and use the savings to give business a tax break. I wonder how many people they have on their payroll.

No evidence that the cloth masks do anything, it is not science. You mask/lockdown dictators need to give it up. Wear your mask if you want. The government here like in many other places needs to get rid of all restrictions, mandates, etc. People are tired of this crap it is harming our society, economy, and many other aspects of our country for nothing. You wanna wear a mask forever? Put it over your eyes so you cant see the rest of people who just want to get on with their lives or you can wear it on your as*%.
John Hopkins Study recently done shows these lockdowns etc did about jack shu$ for covid with a reduction in deaths of.02%
We have basically destroyed our country on the advice of the "experts" for nothing.
