... you conflate unrelated issues. The law is the law, it doesn't matter if it is the law of men or God. When a person break the law, there are consequences. When we break moral law, we have moral problems. When we break civil law we have societal problems. If a person does not want a consequence, they should not break the law. Keeping the law is an issue of personal responsibility and nothing more. But if you like our country as it currently is, then people should just keep doing what they are and blame others, simple!
... yet look at how morally bankrupt we are as a people. High rates of single parent homes, crime, increasing levels of sexual perversion and STD's in both youth and adults, skyrocketing drug and alcohol abuse, an intellectually dumbed down society and the list goes on. All because we refuse to be more morally disciplined.
Our leaders are not elected to think, but to hold meetings, working lunches, pontificate and make decisions without the benefit of foresight. That is why we are an enviable 'turd' world country!
Maybe the PM does not realize that we are moving into a season with much less rain which means this is not a priority at this time. Most of the country is out of work, getting sick or dying and his focus is on sidewalks and the Cabinet building?
Bahamians have always failed to prioritize issues, hence our delusional arrogance and pride while living in a failed state! Coronavirus has exposed the absolute failure of our country to prepare for the future and the current failure of governance makes it clear that we need more critical thinking and problem solving in this country, rather than following what everyone else is doing to our detriment. We are such a simple people!
Every time this PM opens his mouth he shows just out of touch he is with the Bahamian people and the real life challenges they have and I can't believe we have been paying him for the past 7 months!
