Actually selfishness is a condition of the human heart that is cultivated by desire and furthered by power. It can occur on an individual or national level. After all the "national" interest is usually the expressed interest of one person or a group of people who stand to benefit from a particular course of action. So called divide and conquer is simply entitized self interest and is as old as power itself. Only a change of heart, not education or politics can root it out!!
Yet the QC won't accept that birthright citizenship, illegal construction of houses and illegally entering , staying and working in the Bahamas for a certain group are also against the rule of law!
There are those who want to choose when science should be denied. Science says there are only two sexes and a man is not a woman, but strangely enough increasing numbers of people chose to deny that!
There should be a standing order that bodies left more than 30 days will be cremated with the bill sent to the next of kin! Can't these guys solve any problems?
If Bahamians could build structures when and where they wanted in this country then we would not be as economically disadvantaged compared to illegals!
The government was handed a golden opportunity to solve the Haitian problem in Abaco and they have failed miserably!
Seems more sensible to do antibody testing on a larger percentage of the population. Those who have already been infected with the virus don't need a vaccine! Then give it to the politicians first and wait two weeks. If no deaths or illness then consider the elderly and those with medical conditions who are antibody negative next!
