... the best anti- crime strategy is a strong, stable family with responsible parents who teach sound moral values and respect for others to their children! Learning respect for authority begins at home, and none of that has anything to do with government!

... the solution is to increase the value employees bring to an employer. A functionally illiterate 21 year old with 2 children and a high school diploma realistically does not have much value to offer an employer! Increasing the minimum wage only increases employee hardship and increases unemployment as employers lay off staff and overwork those who remain!

... a call for 'shelters' is a request for money.

This country is reaping the fruit of living without moral values, self discipline and an understanding personal responsibility. When uneducated children have children with reckless abandon with no social structure, the country will be converted into a ghetto filled with angry, substance addicted abusers. We have no one to blame but ourselves, for these are the seeds we sowed!

... since "land based inflation" actually occurs, then that is an automatic benefit of high net worth individuals being in the country since every person involved in the sale of all land benefits (sellers, mortgage corps, banks, lawyers etc) from these inflated prices which puts more money into circulation, not including jobs created by ongoing construction etc. This suggests your argument is a specious one!.

... covid is spread by breathing, even with masks. I wonder how many can socially distance on a plane and hold their breath for the entire trip!

... physical abuse, though wrong, is only the tip of the iceberg. More people are mentally and emotionally damaged by verbal abuse. Low self esteem, depression, sexual promiscuity, attention seeking behavior, anger and acting out physically are all evidences of this.

People seem to think physical abuse is wrong but psychological abuse is irrelevant. Those people need to think again!

... if you had a business that had complex issues that were managed the way this team managed the pandemic, you would have fired every one of them. A failure to point out the many failings that took place means the same people will manage the next healthcare crisis with the same kind of outcome! But then again Bahamians love flowery talk and not competent actions and accountability!

... if you were even marginally inclined to understand science, you would know that the mRNA shots are NOT vaccines. Secondly, rates of covid and hospitalizations amongst the "vaccinated" is increasing in the US at this time.
Studies out of Israel have shown that "unvaccinated" people who had covid have a 13x greater response to delta variant and future covid infections than those who have been "vaccinated" ( which means naturral immunity is more robust than that created by the shots) and further that natural immunity lasts at least one year (which is longer than the shots being given). This means that antibody testing is the most sensible thing to
do BEFORE advising people to take a covid shot, but that is not being done. Lastly, when people do not get booster shots their risk of getting covid increases 2x.
But since you are pushing "vaccinations" for a virus with a mortality of less than 2% in adults and 0.0001% in children, you would know these things already!
