This is great news for all those homes that can afford to invest in solar electricity generation.

The duty free price controlled bread basket items were introduced by the UBP government before the so called majority rule. The idea was to provide staples at the lowest cost to the poor. As happens with most everything our governments have attempted it went horribly wrong and we have ended up with one of the most obese nations in the world. We are what we eat .

I wonder if the honourable gentleman wold like yo comment on the increase in stamp tax from 1.75% to 7% enacted by his government. I hope he is enjoying his pension for life after 8 years as a cabinet minister paid for by those citizens who actually have to work in real jobs.

TalHusler, you neglected to say that the alternative provided was even worse. You speak in half truths. You would make a good plp supporter as long as you had an easy good paying government job.

Why does the BCC think it has something worthwhile to offer as advice to the government on the economic running of the country. Churches are the best business to be in except for the webshops. But they only do so well and make so much money for their owners because they operate with no regulation and no taxes. It is time to start taxing these parasites who prey upon the poorest most gullible of our citizens. "Give me 10 percent of what you earn and I will arrange that God will let you into Heaven." What lies they spin. Do you know how much of your money you will have to pay them to conduct a burial service? It is almost daylight robbery. These comments do not apply to those established church Denomination that pay their pastor/vicar/priest a set and modest salary such as; Anglican, Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox, Lutheran, and Presbyterian.

Why do plp leaders mislead so easily? There is a huge difference between a grubby piece of paper with some random numbers written on it carried in the pocket of a nondescript citizen and a database on a webshop compute which has recorded every detail of every transaction and every id of every customer. Easy to build a case that will hold up in court. Does everyone remember chief of police Elliston greenslade announcing publicly that he would close the illegal numbers houses within two weeks? I guess he got too busy preparing to be the Bahamas's ambassador to the court of St James in the UK. What hope does a country have when the chief of police lies so publicly and is the honoured with a high post?

Thisnotours, your comment "Nothing anyone says can beat that man up more than the voices in his head" may or may not be correct. In this country we have about 10,000 sociopaths who do not usually even know that they are sociopathic, most of them consider themselves just hard men or tough women if they engage in any self-reflection. If this stupid driver is sociopathic he will be beating himself up not from guilt but from the realization that he is going to prison and that some very angry relatives will never forgive him. If a magistrate gives him a slap on the wrist fine as has happened in the last two cases then if I was a grieving relative............I would be very upset. I am so sorry for this needless loss of life.

So I wonder just how much pension money the Bahamian taxpayers are paying out every month to the former managing director of BOB. Since he did such an impressive job of work, I expect it will be a large amount. But maybe not quite as much as the former minister of finance and one fingered salutes is getting.

John. you post disgusting racial bigotry. A typical D- plp supporter.
