I can use cash and credit/debit cards when I travel internationally. Who accepts Sand Dollar outside The Bahamas?

You are correct, why are they trying to force a product on people that is of no value and not needed?

That is why it amazes me how the idiot Wilson can make such a statement without providing that context.

It is a shame that the cost of living in this country is unbearably high, and this idiot named Wilson is trying to propose taxing the daylights out of Bahamians.

Davis really believe we have no intelligence. They can track the doctors regular work hours but don't have something in place to track their overtime?

And like you say, he is the employer responsible to track overtime. WHo is he trying to blame for not doing his job?

So does the PM really believe that business owners fo not seek to source their products directly from the manufacturer?

Maybe the PM needs to take his own advice and start by buying the fruits directly from Haiti, rather than having them shipped from Haiti to the US and then buying from the US. DOn't give rhetoric, just take action and show that you are doing it.
