@ OMG... to put it another way, the PLP, having been in power far longer than any other party, has had far more time to victimize far more people than the FNM!
@ DonAnthony ... ZNS is a propaganda tool for the government of the day. I would be surprised if any show at ZNS actually turns a profit. Were it not for government subsidies, ZNS would have closed down decades ago!
The Bahamas used to be called a nation for sale, but we are now a nation sold, like a prostitute to the highest bidder, uncaring about the consequences!!
*"Dr Sands said one of the private planes, which attempted to enter the country on Friday, had passengers who were eligible to enter this country and others who were not. “They were given that information and they chose to fly on to another destination,” he said.*
If one passenger on that plane is suspected of having been potentially exposed then by virtue of them sharing the same enclosed space on a plane they are **all** automatically suspicious, but Sands should know this!
It seems more reasonable to determine if we are near earthquake fault lines that would put us at risk of earthquake activity. It seems our neighbors in the south should have much greater concerns. I remember reading years ago that Port Royal Jamaica sank into the sea because an earthquake in the **1600's** (they couldn't blame climate change).
The purpose of imposing VAT was to pay down the mammoth national debt. Its seems self defeating to continue to impose this tax on citizens when government borrowing continues to greatly outpace paying down the debt! The electorate should protest this continuing burden!
I wonder if Immigration officers are simply asking travelers if they were in China recently or if they are manually checking their passports to determine this! With a former a person can always deny having visited when they did for fear of being 'quarantined', but the latter would be more conclusive!
