Her position is in line with the PLP, not against it. She heads a PLP project. She is part of the problem and the fact that she managed to get her husbands company involved shows you exactly why this country is falling apart. Wake up!

Tal, the money was wasted by useless officials who don't know what they are doing and never will, but your solution is to give them more money.

Do you believe any of what you type here or are you just being contrary every chance you get?

But they were married when the government decided to throw millions of our tax dollars over to her husbands company who it's pretty clear will just go along with what she had been pushing this whole time. This is why there are such things as conflicts of interest.

Honestly, what the hell? They hire the company that is run and owned by this woman's husband! This has got to be a joke. Was this an open tender? Who else applied for this consulting job, or was it just handed to one person that would do nothing more than go along with all of the work his wife had previously done.

This is so typical of this government. Corruption and graft, non stop and right in front of us. These people are thieves, they are stealing from us every single day.

Turns out Etoile and her husband are the real money grubbing asses.

This place is almost not even worth saving.

You're right, but that's not going to stop until there is no incentive to come. Everyone complains about illegals taking jobs, but where are the fines for Bahamian businesses hiring them? Why do jobsites not get visits from Immigration to ensure all the workers are documented. They have an incentive because people will pay them to work and they have no option to try and become documented and contribute to the Bahamas society because the government has taken a bureaucratic stance against Haitians.

The government allows people to entice them here, and then tries to demonize them for coming, while not really actually doing anything about it.

Personally, I disagree with you on this, but I guess we are both entitled to our opinions on the matter. Debate makes us all better.

A guy lives here for 10 years, pays into NIB, pays taxes through duty and now VAT. He commits no crimes other than entering illegally,yet you want to now throw him in jail and kick him out of the country. The statute of limitations applies to how long it has been since illegally entering the country till he is charged. Not how long it takes once he is charged, that would be due process.

Again you are wrong. Ireland, England, France, all of Scandinavia, and just about every country in Europe, all give citizenship to babies born in their countries.

Our laws are antiquated and built upon a xenophobic ideas.

Don't worry, we'll follow about 5 years behind when the US legalizes it nationwide and miss out on any economic benefits. That's just how we roll.

You do know about the idea of a Statute of Limitations? Meaning that you need to bring charges against someone within a reasonable amount of time depending on the crime.

Also, who do you expect to pay for all these locked up foreigners who have committed no crime except trying to better their lot in life? Better not be my VAT money going to crap like that.
