... there is a time and place for everything, That was neither the right time or the place! Nobody who perpetuated slavery or were on the receiving end of it are alive now. It's time to move on!

... a poster child for term limits!

joeblow says...

... Mitchell is only one example of why politicians should have term limits! The political class has destroyed the potential of this once great country! Our infrastructure is failing, healthcare is a mess, the people have been dumbed down to imbecility and we are being crushed with debt, while an immigrant class continues to steal opportunities from real Bahamians. We don't need the government meddling in anything else!

joeblow says...

... whatever the government touches deteriorates because they have no interest in nation building, but in winning elections! Just look at how rundown, corrupt and inefficient Nassau and the other family islands are and you can see the effects of total government control. They need to leave Freeport alone, because the Port will be far better than **any** Bahamian government!

joeblow says...

... thugs, with the power of a uniform and the law behind them!

joeblow says...

... the problem with price increases is that they often stay in place long after the crisis that prompted them has passed! It's past time to privatize and modernize the bus system in Nassau! That would solve many problems!

joeblow says...

... interesting that she did see the importance of how to deal with people until she worked for herself! That in a nutshell explains government workers and highlights the problem with our tourist product. People don't see how their behavior to guests in this country affects how and how much people are willing to spend! We have lost that part of the uniqueness that Bahamas had instinctively!

joeblow says...

... in spite of its shortcomings, the Port Authority is better equipped to manage Freeport. All one has to do is look at Freeport and compare it to High Rock, West End or any other area outside of Port control! The government has no business sense. They will destroy and politicize the entire process, run up a massive bill and the rest of us Bahamians outside of Grand Bahama will pick up the bill!

... we knew for decades that Haitians almost never entered the Bahamas through a legal port of entry, so they only could have gotten the foothold they now have by breaking the law (with the assistance of corrupt Bahamians). Its time to penalize the lawbreakers and those who aid them with maximum penalties. The Bahamas cannot sustain anymore of these people who steal opportunity from actual Bahamians! Good riddance!

... plenty people graduating who can't read, write or problem solve and they have no soft skills! At some point we have to consider raising standards instead of lowering them! Everybody can't work for the government, a fast food restaurant or hustle tourists on the beach!
