Is this new discovery to make the Disney deal look better? Or to justify spending needed to upgrade Prince George warf and do a Arawak Cay deal?

I guess we need to see the government balance sheet then. If they have one they can produce to really understand what is going on with spending.

Where is the 65 million for Grand Lucaya? Next Quarter? Or is that special vehicle a way to hide it of the books?

I do not trust the government to manage any more of my money and anyone else who does is a fool. They cannot handle what they are taking from me now. More money will not help the government do anything.

I care because if that money goes into the consolidated fund it will be squandered. Its starts at 2% then 3% then 4% how will it stop? It wont. We cant fix pot holes in roads and provided basic infrastructure but we gonna do NHI? Why do we also have caps on NIB and now proposed NHI? 2-5% of a person making 220 dollars a week means a hell of allot more than 2-5% of a person making 8,000 a week but they do not pay on their full amount. That is dead wrong even if it went to a lower rate above the threshold.

Costa Rica is not an island ;P. So your idea to compete with DR's 4 million stop over visitors is to put a exclusive cruise port on land that if developed correctly could bring in lots of heads in beds? Wow brilliant. I am not against development but, we need the right kind that will benefit people with real jobs and not destroy our home in the meantime. And no I would not mind the civil service being cut by 50% it is a bloated hog that is not efficient with people falling over each other and no one responsible for anything. Put that money into proper infrastructure on these islands which is the governments job not employing people and the investors and the money will flow in. None of these places can develop without infrastructure.
