So this organization of agricultural landowners want every Bahamian man, woman, child, and baby yo pay a little more than $3 per week for a year in order to have the opportunity to buy foodstuffs grown in the country. A house hold of six persons would therefore have to find an extra $72 per month just for this opportunity.

I hope I am wrong but I just can not see large scale farming working. One of Florida's larger citrus growing families tried in Grand Bahama for years. They gave up when their fields were inundated with a salt water surge for the third time during the hurricane several years ago.

has Nassau ever thrived as a city engaged in purely legal commerce? It was booming as pirate town, made people rich when the privateers came in to resell their captured cargoes. Merchants and Sea captains got rich running the blockade to keep the Confederates supplied during the American Civil War, Plenty Bahamian families got rich running rum and liquor during prohibition years, smuggling Chinese during this time as well, but we don't talk about that and who did it. How many houses were built in the 198o's on the back of a night-time run across the Gulf. Why did Robert the Vesco end up in Nassau, yep, tax evasion, and off=shore money laundering. Thousands of well paid citizens have worked in off shore banks which were designed to minimize the lawful taxes paid by corporations and wealthy individuals. Stafford Sands, KCMG, and Harold Christie, KCMG, built the foundation of the largest legal sources of wealth that the country still has today. Otherwise we too would be migrating in homemade sloops with sails made out of used PVC banners.

It is interesting that the private schools compensate their teachers at a lower level than do public schools, despite this the private schools seem to be able to attract and retain a more effective body of educators. /is it the size of the classes, or perhaps the campus facilities? It would be edifying to find out.
Having studied nutrition for over 30 years and for much of that time being involved in the food distribution network, I consider more qualified than almost any other Bahamian. Those who know me also know that I have been lobbying for this change for the past decade. Unfortunately the government will not seek my advice but will probably ask some medical doctor. Medical doctors are taught how to prescribe drugs and know as much about nutrition as my potcake, Medical doctors also tend towards arrogance so their ignorance will not stop them making recommendations. This is a great concept and much needed, I just hope it works out well. An 800 percent duty on sugar, sodas and candy would improve the national health of the nation no end.
