The borders of the world are not closed. We closed our borders to the rest of the world. But our over reliance on tourism has us in this position. Hopefully the Prime Minister is genuine is asking for ideas, and hopefully he will not just stack his advisory with people who know nothing. Usually these advisory groups never seek advice form the "common" people who have more sense and better ways to solve some issues.

Maybe, it would be good for the government to have even MP have an online portal where each person in their constituency can submit ideas.

Please stop the plastic bag nonsense. People had ample time to prepare and adjust on the before it was implemented. And if yo have a problem with the bag fee charge take your own bag.

It is downright sad that it took a crisis for the government and private sector to finally try catch up to the rest of what the world was already doing in online e commerce.

Price gouging. They don't remember what they say from one day to the next.

For years there were people who were telling successive governments to diversify and top relying on tourism alone. Where was James when he was Minister of State for Finance when those calls were being made? Oh, guess he was sleep.

The Bahamas is not being bullied. They are ships registered in the Bahamas. The first obligations to those ships is the place where they are registered. No one forced us to register the ships. We going after the money made the choice. We can't now seek to drop the ball and say it is not our fault.

The the government needs to make it profitable. Ask a doctor who comes homes and wants to open their own business about the boys club that will block them at every turn. Our young people going to school will not return until we are willing to change our nation for the bette to make it worthwhile for them to return.

As always. Predatory lenders never change and always advocate for their base of lenders even if not there. It is sad. Let's hope Turnquest stays the cost and does not try to borrow. The flip side is are we willing as Bahamians to tighten our financial belts?

This picture is a clear sign that his so called zero tolerance for crime is nonsense. No social distancing. Also was the ceremony yesterday essential? Should those people have been out of their home for a ceremony and with more than 10 people? Funerals can only have 10 people but look at this non essential meeting numbers. Just saying. I could be wrong though.

Who cares about Phillip Davis statement. He is just trying to score political points at a time that is not needed.
