I was lead to understand that the government is borrowing money from the power company to try to "upgrade the system" and paying them back along with twelve percent interest?

Reminds me of something I saw on TV this week. A police stopped a M.B. car for speeding. Guy told the cop he knew the chief of police. Cop arrested the driver, and the chief showed up and ordered the cop to remove the handcuffs and release the driver. Then berated the cop for stopping the rich guy. Saying, "You know who pays for your lunchroom, and cooking equipment? You know who pays for the coffee in that room? We are paid to protect these people, not arrest them."
Something in that statement?

That might be the most ignorant statement ever made and printed in a newspaper. Here was a lady that was not only an internationally known scholar regarding the history of The Bahamas, but more importantly, actually recorded it for prosperity. If not to honor such a stalwart of our country, exactly WHO should "taxpayer dollars" be spent on?
You sound like a person who also feels "all of the historic (old) bulidings should be torn down, and NEW buildings built in their place...."
