Once again PC is playing with the feelings of the Bahamian people. He knows very well he can't do anything about it,and most likely he does not care either.On top of that he ensured that next year the Bahamian people will pay more taxes whether they have a job or not.
The PLP has perfected the "art" of exploiting the vulnerable,buying votes,and renting crowds. Although I don't know if Fred's allegations are correct,why is he so upset? Perhaps he truly believes that these methods are the exclusive right of his party.
After being publicly humiliated by his own backbenchers, I guess there is nothing else for him to do than laugh and try to play down the incidents. The sad reality must be that nobody listens to him anymore.
I never said that sending civil servants home was the answer. I said that may be no other choice if the government has no revenue. Also I never said that the FNM was better a collecting outstanding taxes. I said governments (FNM and PLP). And what is wrong with the "old idea" of collecting outstanding taxes? Maybe if everyone was paying we would not be in this mess. And yes I do have a problem when governments (PLP andFNM) waste taxpayers money.
@birdie... You seem to believe that VAT is the only solution to reduce the debt. I guess cutting government spending has never crossed your mind. How about collecting outstanding taxes? Too difficult right? VAT will not bring the expected results,especially with our governments record of revenue collection. When this happens the government will have no choice but to layoff civil servants. Private layoffs will happen much sooner I am afraid
Before PC left for Vegas,he ensured that new taxes will be imposed to the Bahamian people. Ironically VAT will mostly hurt lower and middle class families who supported the PLP in the last election. PC rewarded his voters for their stupidity
Wait a minute. According to your colleague Freddie there is unity among the party regarding the referendum. All we see is simply "posturing which comes from the French word to speak". So why the accusations?

PC cares so much for the poor that imposed a tax that will hurt them the most. Actions speak louder than words.
