... the average Bahamian "working" 10 days a week might only earn about 25% of their weekly salary! That number would be much less for government "workers"!
... plenty young single mothers will work for $250.week, off the books. No NIB, no union nonsense etc., and those who expect more will be out of a job. So you see market forces will see some unemployed, while others will have two jobs off the books!
... I would say considering the amount of them in the job market, schools, getting health care and in the rb pf, rbdf and other branches of government, I would say something is wrong with the headlines!
... the government has collected billions of dollars from VAT, for the sole purpose of paying down the national debt. They have failed miserably at being transparent with the accounting of those funds, so why might people question another slush fund that can be used to ensure a select few, party generals and their relatives get medical care??
