These modern-day politicians and governments are becoming so lazy with their ideas and commitment for running a country it's shameful and downright disgraceful, on one hand, we have a Minister saying that the Bahamas will soon not be able to afford to keep our borders safe and repatriate illegal out the country, we have a next Minister saying it is impossible to police building structures being built, it seems like today's politician are only good for making up excuses after excuses, they are so lazy in their thinking it's pitiful. A prime example is the perimeter wall in front of the new Ministry of National Security building JFK drive the wall is about 8 months old and has been repaired about 5-6 times already and today the brand new wall looks like S$$T, the person or persons responsible for giving out this contract and also those responsible for the workmanship should be brought before the courts and sent to jail

Just like the prison, the PMH and health system was designed for the early 60s traffic, as the Bahamas grew our infrastructures stayed the same, stayed basically stuck in the 60s. The year is 2020 we are so far behind and in so much need of repair by the year 2040 moving at the pace we are moving and progressing, the Bahamas will surely crumble and be added to the list of impoverished poor countries in the Caribbean.

Very honestly put, at the end of the day there is not one person in the Bahamas with such an opportunity that wouldn't make the same decision to ensure they receive the best possible chance for survival, given the fact his daughter is a specialist in the COVID-19 medical field.

Location Pending? These 104 locations pending have to be visitors visiting the Bahamas and the authority doesn't want the citizens to know, because how can there be 104 citizens without any known location?

Why be surprised just like illegal immigration, this is the only place or country in the world where you can enter illegally and become legal in an instant. So the D-average Government wants its business citizens to do business illegally first and then proceed to become legal, yea that sounds like our governments. Having a Master's degree or any paper issued Degree does not mean or guarantee the holder is competent in their field. I am sure the builders of the great pyramids of Egypt did not sit an exam or whatsoever to become the great engineers that they were. What is so so sad is that we the citizens have to bring our plight or grievance out in the public domain just to get results. sad, so, so sad. The foreigners, on the other hand, are looked after instantly. sad, so, so sad

Talk is cheap and so is the supposedly pledges made by the donors or money lenders, money buys land, before announcing to the Bahamian public what these donors and money lenders spew out of their mouths and getting our hopes rising, the competent authorities should have them verified and authenticated.

Please, please, please charge these people because they are the very ones that are causing the going on the beaches during regular hours to remain prohibited. How inconsiderate of them knowing quite well that the incompetent authority only needs to get wind of something like this happening on beaches just to keep the beaches closed during regular hours indefinitely.

Why is it that wholesale liquor stores are not allowed to provide curbside services like the other businesses? The Chinese don't hire Bahamian workers but Rabbit and Kirki's wholesale bar does and these young ladies also need to eat and have families to feed, the incompetent authority and his advisors are still playing politics, they say beaches are open between 5 am to 9 am, how many persons go to the beaches at these hours, the sun doesn't even arise until 6.30 am, these people making up these rules as they go along really takes Bahamians for idiots. They pretend like they are doing something when they are actually doing nothing, they will give us corned beef and then try to convince us that it's steak.
