Royal Caribbean passengers are the cheapest and worst passengers of any of the cruise lines. They do not spend money in Nassau and most barely even get off the boat. It's far better to have them go to a private cay and pay their departure tax. That was all the money we were getting from them anyway. Cruise ship passengers are not the kind of tourist we want in the Bahamas. We should be focusing on people who fly here, and stay here and spend money here.

They are both better and more efficient than the Bahamian tax system. No one said more taxes, they said to modernize the tax system.

Oh John, you just can't help yourself with the racism and xenophobia.

Yeah, just a lump of shit that account for $17 trillion in GDP (about 20% of the world GDP) and just over 500 million people. Go educate yourself and stop being an embarrassment.
