Why the sudden surge in numbers? Is it possibly this is related to the employee at Wendy’s who served hundreds of customers at their drive-thru window? I’m sure they have the store’s tapes hence the prediction.

I figure if I’m going to stand on a line for 2 to 3 hours to go in a food store to buy food, it’s just cheaper to do my own cooking.

I support the lockdown. What I don’t support, however, is the timing. There are now videos on social media showing chaos at the food stores and people are not practicing social distancing which clearly defeats the purpose. This was not well thought out.

I predict that inflation will go to a whole new level after this. So many businesses are taking hits with just a few rich whites getting even richer in the midst of this crisis. Insurance premiums are already high with Dorian as the excuse. The government is just giving them an excuse to go up to recoup their loses. Great idea with possibly nasty implications.

Very dumb! Not everyone has access to online banking.😡

In other news one of the insurers named in the article went up on my house insurance by about $300. So they’re not paying claims in full for people with legitimate claims and are price gorging the persons who haven’t claimed.

Insurance is the biggest rip off in this country.!!

Pastor Borrows is from the streets but outside of that I’m sure he and his church did extensive research on this. I believe him and support his statement.

It’s a monster of their own making. The government in being greedy and charging the tax for the bag and Roberts for not finding another alternative. He makes enough money to hire proper security/surveillance without forcing his customers to buy an expensive bag. I think people reserve the right to not purchase a bag and to force them to do so in top of purchasing expensive groceries is nonsense.

I agree. I'll believe it when I see video footage of these shanty towns being bulldozed.

We gat a major problem on our hands as they are not catching the illegals and all they do is leave one island and head to another. Like roaches and rodents you just can't get rid of them fast enough.

We would happily comply if Mr Ward can telll is how many claims Bahamas First has honoured since Hurricane Dorian. His company is known to frustrate claims and are all about collecting and not paying out. So he gets a mass increase in premiums and then takes the rate up or worse yet not honour the claims. Everyone knows that insurance is the biggest rip off beginning with NIB Health Life - all take and no give
