if we want our crawfish to be exported ,if we want our central bank drafts to have any value and clear the clearing banks around the world ,and if we want large investors to feel secure in our c urrency and have the ability to move money we have to comply w/ the WTO and IMF ,,it really is that simple . You might not like it but ,big dog always rules ..specially when you live on coral rocks ,produce very little that is needed as a necessity in a golbal economy and only have sun ,sand and sell to sell ,,big up ur chest all you like ,but thats reality
very simple John ,google how many people were killed in the tribal wars that supplied slaves for the trans atlantic slave trade ..also look up how many slaves were taking out of africa by the middle eastern muslim countries ,shouldn,t you sue then too ..
Should the Jews get to sue the Romans who are now the Italians for enslaving them in Bibical time ??Are you aware there are still tribes in africa today that conquer other tribes villages/city and enslave them ???
2 million blacks were killed in the middle passage ,up to 6 million blacks were killed in the tribal wars that produce the prisoners that were sold by the tribal chiefs into slavery ..Having a father that owned a wholesale grocery for 40 years the i know " the for export only is for tax reasons " if you want to believe some other nonsense go ahead .Yes of course there is genetically modified corn ,grafting to get the best crops did the same thing just slower
Remember the Brahma cows giving to us by the U/S ,,hows that farming going ,,remember hatchet bay ...I put my life on the line that of the 5000 kids graduating every year you couldn,t get a hundred to work farming in the hot sun /dirt and although farming has been modernized w/ expensive very costly equipment ,it still requires a lot of low skilled /low wage workers to do back breaking work ,,good luck finding that
I guarantee you in 3 years there will be too many national heroes to remember or count , and before every election there will be hundreds more trotted to a poduim to be "blessed" How many stalwart consulers did PGC name the last time his leadership was in question ,,Give a Bahamian an award and they will lick your boots forever ..
Are we going to go back and sue the Roman empire that had over 100 million slaves of all hues and colour ??Are we going to sue the African warlords that killed over 6 million in tribal warfare that was ongoing and then they starting selling their prisoners to the slave trade to gain wealth and guns and not have to feed them ..Are we going to sue the African leaders of Nigeria etc ,that have oil and diamond wealth today and their populations live on less than a dollar a day and are starving .Are we going to sue the middle eastern Muslim countries that took slaves out of the top of Africa w/ out boats ...
Having know Hai all my life through my father i can honestly say he was not corrupt .did he have to give back to his backers ,yes they all do ,but he pissed a lot of "Bay street boys " off by giving contracts to PLP ,s too if they were qualified /..Did he spend too much during the recession ,thats a philishofical question ,sorry for the spelling ,about Kensian economics .Did he make bad decesions ,yes but he is not corrupt .PGC is not corrupt either he just can,t control those around him ..
There are 20 million people enslaved in the world today , women in the sex industry ,children etc ,there are still tribes in Africa that enslave the other tribes they capture in tribal warfare
