So they want to divide up the crown land and give it to the people who were slaves that worked it? What the hell are they talking about. There are no people alive today who were slaves.
They're saying the government is standing in the way of providing this land to the Bahamian people? It's crown land meaning it's already owned by the Bahamian people. We all own it, and it benefits all Bahamians.
I wholeheartedly agree with everything you said, apart from where our politicians are patriots. Some may be, but the majority, and especially the leadership, are far from it. They are interested in lining their own pockets and taking whatever they can. Their interest in the Bahamas and the people go as far as what can be swindled from them.
Well then we need to be improving our regulations and accountability. It's not ok to simply say this is the way it is, we have to be saying this is the way it needs to be. We can change for the better, we just need to push our leaders to do so.
What a waste of time and money. We're opening up competition to the telecommunications market in the Bahamas, we should have been selling off the rest of BTC, not getting more.
The governments, time and again, have proven they have no idea how to actually run a corporation.
You are entirely right, there is absolutely no reason to join the WTO unless we are exports as much as we are importing and that is not something that will ever happen here in the Bahamas.
We should be pulling out of joining the WTO immediately. We're going to be handicapped for no reason.

This is not costing the banks '$500,000' in fees. They would never have been giving mortgages out to the people who get them from webshops anyway.

You are certainly very good at using the internet, considering your age of over 300 all while living pre-industrial age island.
I would have hoped all that internet research would have made you more informed about how the world actually works.
