Even if I were vaccinated, I would not attend such a gathering.

Every person I know who died or contracted Covid had a history of attending gatherings.

What is next? Only vaccinated will vote?

And, no, the housing thing is not fair. But age discrimination is allowed. You just have to peruse the newspaper to see how many age-restrictive job offers are printed.

Also there is a roving 50+ population who see themselves displaced and told they are overqualified. I have actually seen an termination letter where the employee was told she was too old, while she was in fact the most competent in her position.

The constitution does not offer age and gender discrimination protection, so the talk show callers say,

Well, I was partial to this fella when, in opposition, he spoke on the application of VAT on top of customs duty.

I gave up on him when he I saw him on TV jeering LBT. Then he raised VAT. Then he witnessed his friend hog donated generators after the hurricane and did nothing.

He did try a little bit of fiscal austerity, but then he got booted. Yep, the long standing matters were kept in the freezer until it was time. KARMA.

But those left have gone wild with the spending.

Your time to make a difference has passed.

The doctors and lawyers will not tax themselves.

Perry Christie wanted payroll tax, not income tax. The doctors and lawyers are not on payroll.

These people have no morals. Only those who earn more than 35 or 4o thousand per year should pay income tax.

She printed a medal with her face in it.
When archeologists find it 500 years from now, they will say she was the first Bahamian empress.

The domes were supposed to be completed December 2019.

> While these communities, their restaurants, bars, beaches, businesses never closed, the Bahamian entrepreneur was forced to close and lock down with many to never appear again.

Yet, bahamians will go and patronize these restaurants to pay $20 for a salad and pretend to be rich for a day. Guy recently told me he went to a luxury restaurant for his birthday , did not like the food, but enjoyed the chicken wings. chicken wings???? You go to a restaurant to eat chicken wings-- poverty food?

That is why we are poor and they are rich.

True. I use a courier that prints a little pie chart of the amount paid to him.

I often pay 40-60% I paid amazon to land the package here.

But remember, a merchant pays the same, then marks up, so often this is still much cheaper than the local price.

Unless the product is very big, or heavy, hazardous or perishable, in which case I buy locally and leave the headache to the merchant.
