They are killing the poor and marginalizing the middle class while giving kick backs and exemptions to the rich. FNM - party of the rich. PLP - party of the cronies. You just can't win for losing.
Sound like because it's the PM constituency, this will be swept under the carpet.
Who the heck puts barriers in the middle of a road anyway? If you don't want traffic to come through, why not close it off entirely or put the barriers at the entrance of the road so that people don't have to figure it out after they come through? Dumb!
Not to mention, when you buy a bottle of alcohol, vat is added. When you gamble your hard-earned money, there is no VAT payable on that. Just the promise of a win which doesn't happen and a sure profit for the number boy who owns the establishment. The bottom line, is they get to keep most of your money while paying only a small percent in taxes.
I’m surprised that someone like Mr. Johnson, who touts his many qualifcations on social media to all who would heed, would not know the finer points of General Orders and know to avoid such blatant controversy as a public servant in a lofty position but I guess Little Tommy Tucker now has to sing for his supper.
The Government is hell bent on taxing us into oblivion. Economcially, it’s the equivalent of sexual assault without protection - unless, of course, you own a wash house or an airline business.
Davis knows what the play is because he and his corrupt PLP party allowed themselves to be bought by Nygard and the Numbers Boys. Small wonder their short stint in power was marred by corruption. It started prior to election. The only thing they didnt count on was that the Bahamian people would see past the bull and vote them out and the Numbers Boys didnt count on their purchased Government losing power and being replaced by one not swayed by their long dollars.
I'm willing to ‘bet’ that if they back thr PLP again, that the PLP never sees the light of another term in office.

Amazing. And when we over-the-Hillians get robbed they never gat no car to send or the station short staffed.
The focus needs to be on solving ALL crime not just the ones that affect the previous tourist.
Charity still starts at home.
