*"I’m a nationalist. I am trying to understand why they are signaling ‘Brave’ Davis like he did something for me for donations or political favours. He has been a mentor to me.”*
A nationalist who has contributed to the erosion of the work ethic while encouraging an addiction that sucks financial resources from the poor who need it most and destabilizing families all while raking in handsome personal profits. Yes Brave has been a mentor and he has taught him well!
... this is as unwise as doltish American students pulling down Confederate statues because they were offended by them, instead of seeing them as reminders how not to let history repeat itself.
How about Antigua and Barbuda do what's best for them and we do what's best for us! You still can't change history!
... it really seems asinine to sit around for 3 years waiting for government to do something instead of getting up, coming together and trying to do something for ya sef!
... and this is exactly why I am against income tax. The government will always find ways to expand the social welfare net to increase entitlements and create dependence on the government. It is an unsustainable socialist method that will result in economic collapse or devaluation.
What government should be talking about is how it will increase government revenue without adding new taxes on the middle and lower classes to pay for these entitlements WHILE paying down the national debt!!
... that sounds great, but what is the penalty for those who got their shots, get covid and then spread it? The science says the shots do not stop you from getting covid and may not protect you from future variants.
The science says those with natural immunity (may have had covid in the past) have longer lasting protection from future covid infections including new variants. So why not antibody test ALL those who remain "unvaccinated" to see who had the infection already and stop harassing them about getting the shots or threatening them to lose their jobs, because they are better protected than those who had them!
... for $17 million we could have bought several helicopters that would have multiple uses in surveillance, air transport for sick family islanders and use during and after hurricanes! What a waste of money!
... and now the nonsense begins. Only a person who is willfully blind cannot see Jerome's conflict of interest and abuse of position. But then again, birds of a feather ....
... her stats are showing that there is now an increase in deaths among those "vaccinated" and being hospitalized with covid! Just before the election they were boasting that there were no covid deaths among the "vaccinated".
Secondly, her numbers do not reflect those who died from various complications after being given the shots, but I never expected transparency from the government!
... I could be wrong, but it seems unwise to try to pull people who are drowning into a sinking ship! It only hastens the demise of those on the ship!
The Bahamas is a sinking ship in large part because of the amount of immigrants we have absorbed into this country. It has driven down our standard of living, encouraged crime, reduce employment opportunities for Bahamians at the entry level and created a two nation system in our country. People who show no regard for the laws of a country are not likely to become law abiding after they gain illegal entry!
... even worse, we are essentially a socialist state with "democratically held elections". The over dependence on the government to address individual needs is unsustainable. We cannot continue to borrow to keep the civil service employed, give "free" healthcare, antenatal care, free vaccinations and medications for a population with a high level of non-communicable diseases without the economy imploding!
Governments responsibility is to provide an environment that allows businesses to flourish, educate people on their responsibilities and allow individuals to make their own financial choices. This current model is unsustainable!
