Ms Phillips asks; "What’s not to love?" The answer to this question is in the accompanying text; "as being funded by the gaming houses." Gambling is a horrible crippling addiction that destroys lives and families just as drug addiction can also do. This seems an attempt by the gambling bosses to whitewash their predatory business model. It also may not be a coincidence that there is again talk of establishing a National Lottery. Are the gambling lords seeking to curry favour with the government and the electorate to gain control of and reap the profits of such a lottery. Ms. Phillips has spent many years in the field of Public Relations where people are paid to advance a particular agenda or rehabilitate a reputation while making it seem as if there is no overt advertising being used. I cannot help but wonder if money has changed hands to the benefit of a Public Relations professional. Not, I should add, Ms. Phillips in this case as that would be an obvious conflict of interest and against accepted joutnalistic standards.
So W&S Corporation will continue to be prevented from charging their customers enough to pay for the reverse osmosis water that they buy from Consolidated Water, so that debt will increase. The Corporation will also not be able to upgrade infrastructure or adequately maintain it. The results of this will start showing up in a few years time with more burst leaking pipes and cuts in supply. Sigh. Well at least no defense force officers or senior police people have been arrested in the US this week. Sigh.

In about 50 years of going to Junkanoo Jeff Lloyd has been the only Parade Master that managed to get the parade started on time, however good luck with this proposed 9pm start; it will be great if it actually happens.
Please tell me what project is not scarified by greed and stupidity? Perry Chistie's referendum on legalizing the evil of state sanctioned gambling maybe?
Stand TallRussell; yes, just so. But do not expect any of these fake "Christians" to agree with you, T hey are mostly beneath contempt. Remember, most all recent child abuse was done by people either running the church , or at least going to church, Ask me how I know?
The perpetrator of this horrible crime must be extremely mentally disturbed. This then raises the question should the government be responsible for killing people suffering from insanity or should the government be responsible for restraining them in a secure facility and, if possible, treating their mental illness?
