Considering we do probably a million US tourist a year ,perhaps 300,000 are single women .I don,t think 300,000 innocent tourist ,white or black ,stand on a corner in south Chicago waiting to be robbed/raped .And if they white hard core druggies they are street smart .Considering tourism is our business not slinging hard drugs ,,taking them on a jet ski to Atoll island and raping them is not what they bargained for ,,even near the drug dens the dope boys protect their customers in Chicago ,,can,t we protect ours .
it cost us about a billion a year to pay the public service and service our debt ,that's before one nail for infrastructure or maintenance . Considering the cupboard was bare what would you have them do default on the debt and send tens of thousands of civil servants home so we could crash headlong into a major depression and achieve fourth world status .The way you trim the civil service is stop hiring ..
The truth be told and there are many long term studies to back it , the last one released on 140,000 kids to adults over 50 years .

I say close to a billion ,,200 million walked out the front door OF BOB ,then a least another 100 million to crooked foreign consultants that gets divide up abroad ,one of Bagman Bethels long standing scams
We did not get here here overnight ,actually it took forty odd years of a bloated civil service , lack of productivity , corruption and teefin on an epic scale , ever increasing cost for tourist w/ decreasing level of service , a large amount of ignorance combined w arrogance and this is where you end up .We are doing the same amount of stopover guest we did in the nineties ,actually our arrivals were down 6% last year , as others in the region give value for money and their numbers have increased .
He is not condoning corruption , he is saying go after the cases that there is a good chance of getting a conviction .If a minister gives a bloated contract to a friend but you can not prove there was a kickback ,which is usually done in cash , it is very hard to prove its a crime .
