if the churches were all opened and everyone went to church and paid tithes would this corona demon go away? i think i read that one of the cabinet ministers was saying this was a demon?

I think it would have been a wonderful thing if Kevin could have got pregnant and had to raise a child or three as a single parent. He might then have the opportunity to discover why some women choose to take an abortive pill to terminate a pregnancy during the first trimester.

The reason that Grand Bahama and Freeport are not economically thriving under the direction of private enterprise is due solely to the PLP and Pindling's Bend or Break speech way back. Almost single-handed he destroyed the great future prospects and condemned it to an existence not much better than that of his own constituency.

This union official is reported as saying; " and discouraged from volunteering their services ". Really? The nurses volunteer? I thought that they were all hired and paid to do a job of work, it is surprising to hear that they are all volunteers. Anyway good luck to all the nurses who actually do work, most of them are wonderful people doing a job which very important at this time particularly.

I wonder how this employee knows that the owners of this restaurant have made millions of dollars? I think he is just making up stories because the place has gone out of business because it was making no money at all.

what a lot of negative comments, I wonder why? The Bahamas has has a systemic fiscal problem. The country cannot make enough money to pay for the tens of thousands of state employed workers and the unfunded pension costs of tens of thousands more.The plp hired tens of thousands into the civil service and SOE's to garner votes and stay in power. Each year the government has had to borrow more and more money to pay these salaries. It is unsustainable but whichever administration cuts the number of government employees will probably lose the next election, so no one will do it. There is no solution.

I believe Mr. Pinder's longest work experience was being a union executive of the state employed workers. This experience is so far away from the realities involved in running a business in the private sector that it is practically worthless in trying to predict whether or not businesses will lay off employees. Remember that no one has ever been terminated from a government job in 50 years or more. Still Mr. Pinder does sound more sensible now than when he was postulating that we could all get rich selling sand like he did several years ago.

Despite many pleas over the years no government have bothered to enact the legislation badly needed to regulate and protect animals in this country. Just another failing of our elected officials.

What a great way to stop any businesses that need expatriate workers from opening. Absolute genius way to prevent the Bahamian economy from recovering. Why not close down all the foreign owned hotels as well?
