Banker alot of that is true ,but we have to quit looking for governemt to solve our problems .Even in boom times we graduate more children then our economy can absorb ,and none of our under educated youth are going to work on farms .Since the recession in the US the birth rate has been stable ,people are putting off having babies or having less. Even here if you look at the middle class they have maybe 2 to 3 kids while if you look at the more "urban " areas 5 to 6 kids for 3 to 4 different daddies is the norm then they cry for jobs for their anti social unemployable offspring,,

My pop had business w/ them for 30 yrs and i grew up around the stores and knew many of the employees .I always wonder if the Sands group was poor management or with very little of thier own money in it was it a "everything in the registers is ours and profit for as long as it goes " Groceries you make pennies on the dollar over a long period of time unless their way was faster.

Tals what shopping cart , since the recession i buy what i can pick up in my hands , about 3 meals worth and thats still about 35 dollars .I haven,t seen 200 bucks just to spend in the food store since i don,t know when ..Now 200 dollars doesn,t fill a shopping cart on this family island ..i got to go pay my NIB next week and i just read our administrative cost our 21% of contributions while others in our region cost are 2% to 5% of contributions .My Lord i don,t mind paying a little more to provide some jobs but this is crazy ,when 1 in 4 work for Gov ,you got to tax the other 3 like hell , i ,ll bet by the time you figure duty etc were taxed at over 50 % of our income ..

Actually the numbers bosses wanted it legalized b/c with all the anti money laundering laws they have trouble banking there money , we were the idiots that didn,t vote yes for the government to tax it . The Hotels two biggest expenses by far are payroll and energy cost and that stays here ,what they do w/ their profits is there business they put up the money and took the risk.

When the B Sands /fitzgerald group first bought City markets w/ a loan from the hotel union there were double digit millions in the employee pension ,after The Sands group and Finlayson group the employees are now fighting over rent on their own equipment and a rotten old wharehouse . Where is the protest from the Minster of labour and PM ,,

The reason we are going back is just like our neighbors ,Haiti ,Jamaica ,we are making more babies than our GDP can absorb .We have been avoiding this by over staffing our public corporations .Well ,that cost money ,thus the borrowing and taxing .The alternative to hiring our under educated offspring on the public payroll is crime and poverty like you can,t imagine . If we keep making babies like topsy large ghettos ,crime ,poverty and a ruling elite is the only outcome ,,,We run about a billion two budget a year w/ 2/3 going to public service payrolls ,thats not even expenses and pensions ,,,gee no wonder we got to borrow to pave 20 miles of roads ,,mathmatically it can not go on ,,1 in 4 people can,t not work for government there is not enough people left to tax to support it ..
