This is a serious shift in how Bahamians look at governance ............ For the first 40 years, we were told that the government would take care of you. Now we are told that we must sacrifice about 20% of our salary for debt, national development, retirement, unemployment, education and healthcare. That is a serious shift in our national mindset. Welcome to the 21st century.

I have no problem with Obie negotiating with Beyonce (who has Bahamian roots). In the long run, if we can have Beyonce to headline Bahamian Carnival ......... it will be the bomb!!!! Not that I support carnivalizing Junkanoo but if we gonna try this thing we might as well do it big one time. I think we should have someone who has some ties to the Bahamas ........ SIGH

On Still no headliner for carnival

During the Haitian Revolution back in the 1790s, we Bahamians smuggled so many white Haitians and their slaves through our waters so that they could go on to New Orleans (Louisiana) that it almost cost us to lose Nassau to a Haitian coup. But we seem not to learn ................. cuz we doing the same shit 300 years later ................... you should learn from your history (not repeat it).

That is the big problem with our present oppressive tax regime!!!!!!!! And it is going to get worse in the next FIVE years!!!!!!!!!!! Because more taxes are going to be necessary if we dont curb the civil service pension drain, the kickbacks culture and the poor lending rates that are forced upon our government by our Canadian banks of choice
