The Bahamian economy has a serious problem which can only be addressed by an administration that is willing to lose the next election that they take part in. The problem, as we all know, is that government workers and government owned organizations (bob, wsc, ba, bpl, Etc., etc..) absorb much too much of the country's production. No feasible solution to this so our economy is doomed. Should I be buying Bitcoins now that PM Philip Davis seems to have endorsed by addressing the Crypto currency gathering? What could possibly go wrong?

We have been on the cusp of this transformational change for near 50 years now. How long a cusp supposed to last anyway as the only new level seems to be one further level down and deeper in debt. sigh.

The sanctions imposed on Cuba by the US government was primarily done by Republican administrations to garner support from the active and vocal Cuban exile community in Florida. President Obama relaxed the sanctions, President Trump re-imposed them, as did President Bush the younger. The Cuban refugees who reach the Bahamas are mostly all only passing through on their way to the US, or so I would imagine. Wet foot, dry foot.

The Gubmint should immediately hire every unemployed Bahamian and then there would be no unemployment. Also the minimum wage should rise to $3,000 per month. Then everyone could afford groceries. Also Price Control should lower the cost of gas to $1.50 per gallon. Now that was easy, wasn't it? All problems solved, except for how to fund it all. use nib funds perhaps?

Qatar, a country ruled by an unelected monarch with absolute power and no political opposition allowed. Female citizens of this country must be veiled when outside their homes. Public executions by beheading. I wonder what the chest of political cronies will learn to benefit the Bahamian people? Nothing good most probably.

The far right media in the USA has long opposed the WHO, an organization that has saved countless lives during it's existence . As far as I can ascertain the Far Right media in the USA has never saved any lives, on the contrary their unwavering support for the NRA and the gun lobby has resulted in thousands upon thousand of people dead, including over a thousand in the Bahamas over the past decade, killed by guns which most certainly originated in our large Northern neighbor.
