I agree. The bullsh** has to stop. This administration is looking to be a one-term administration. Immigration will be the death of it because I promise the first party that runs on a campaign to fix it will get my vote.
I was beginning to wonder where his head was at. First he says as far a he's aware, persons born in the Bahamas are not "normally deported". Then he says they are putting procedures in place to facilitate the applications for citizenship as too many persons are in limbo who should be here. Now he comes back like he's refuting Rony's so-called right to citizenship or right to apply again. I think he only responded because of the public furor. This man and his Government come across are being very foreign-friendly.
Somebody at the top of the chain in the Ministry of Finance, either the Minister himself or someone right beneath him has hit the stupid button. All of a sudden, as is overnight, assessments are through the roof and even with an appraisal in hand, they refuse to adjust them.
I get that the Government is strapped for cash, but is there is need to overcharge people? It's as if they are hoping persons won't challenge the system and just pay.
This is no way to operate. You simply don't cut off your nose to spite your face.
You are wasting time. They are not listening. Their citizenship for votes campaign would be destroyed if they every fixed Article 7. Our strength as Bahamians are in our numbers. Unless we march in great numbers the problem will never be fixed.
I had the exact same thought. It means more amendments to the computer system in the grocery stores which translates into higher costs to the consumer. What a nightmare for accounting.
