I can only think that the government will reverse some of these new taxes. They have to, especially the airline fees. The economy will collapse and unemployment with increase because companies will not hire new workers and will resort to cutbacks in staff and benefits. These new fees will make it tough for the economy to maintain any sot of upward momentum we will see in short order.
The government will rescind most of these taxes and fees before independence...
It is normal for a new crew on a new ship that came from another part of the world to have some inspection delays. Like the post above from Proud.... it will be worked out and it will just take a little longer then expected. This has nothing at all to do with the PM and the PLP so don't go there.
If anyone is to blame for the delayed sailing on opening day it is the resort, they probably picked the date not PGC.
Now if you want to talk about all these new unexpected taxes and fees that dropped onto our laps without and notice then I am all ears.. If the government doesn't reverse them(which they will) then everything from Tuna to Tampons will increase through the roof and the hardest hit will be the average Bahamian who can not afford it. Prices will increase on every single item and companies with lay off workers to maintain the bottom line (all except government corporations who have no bottom line).

Agreed,
Although I do think that is a little rude of HAI to be playing FNM music outside Tal's bedroom window.

Pat of the deal is that no embryonic stem cells be used.
Does anyone trust that Nygard will not use embryonic cells.?
Does anyone trust this PLP to properly monitor with Nygard does?
The man will pay hem off with e\wine and women (or boys, if they want).
Nygard Cay is a sin pit here anything goes, and I mean anything from group sex, sissy sex, whatever you want...PeterNygrd can and will provide.
And human stem cell research and subsequent therapy is what Nygard wants.
And sadly he will et it with this bunch of crooks..
