Hasn't anyone figured it out yet? This Government is incapable of coming up with any unique or new ideas. They just piggy-back on the same old stuff even when it obviously does not work. No thinking for them outside of the box. Oh no. That's just too much!

Lol. I agree. I always thought that Skyline Drive was the "official" Prime Minister's residence. Godo one B_I_D! Lol.

The assinine-ness of this Government continues to baffle me. "You must separate the government from the individual MP’s,” he said. “The government is not intervening. Persons are intervening." So the Perry Christie intervening and asking the bank what he can do "as Prime Minister" is NOT the Government? I guess as "Prime Minister" Perry Christie is not representing "the Government. #iamsoconfused!!!

The Westminster System is what has us in this mess. The people who voted the Government in cannot recall them.

Or better yet, help all those poor peole in HIS consituency get proper homes!

Is that a bible under her arm? Probably some religious fanatic.

I question how accurate this information is. Most smart business people and parliamentarians put their properties into companies, the beneficial owner of which would not necessariy be reflected on the actual real property tax assessment. You would have to do some major digging to find out who owns the company first before you can say the individual did not pay the tax assessment.

"Mr Wilson, meanwhile, suggested that the economic benefits from legalising web shop gaming would spread beyond just the Government’s fiscal position.

#He suggested that a legitimate industry would be able to deposit its considerable earnings within the Bahamian commercial banking system, vastly expanding the capital pool available to fund productive investment projects."

This from a man who was so set against legalising gambling having recounted his experience with the hobby horse race track and the harm it did to the Bahamian family. The opponents are falling one by one.

You know what I find so interesting about all this? The solution to solving the nation's debt is right in front of us. We do not need to implement VAT or decriminalise web shops. The amount of revenue that the Government needs to raise is out there in uncollected revenue just on real property taxes. All this time wasted in debating VAT and legalising gambling could have been better spent on simply finding a way to collect the outstanding taxes. The country's debt could have been solved long ago. Unfortunately we are being leg by a bunch of headless no-brain chickens. A bunch of "educated" men who cannot come up with a simple plan to collect the taxes that would take us out of this hole they've dug us into.

Fa real! My "NO" vote had nothing to do with any church. So I guess I was NOT in the majority and deluded too, aye????? Chal pleez!!
