While the government efforts for a new bread basket list is exactly what is needed.The reality of the situation is that we have become a fast pace, fast food society. A large percentage of Bahamain's rely on fast food sometimes three or more times a day. Only education about healthy eating can change that, but as long as fast foods are around people will spend less time in the kitchen preparing healthy foods. Something should be done to test the contents of fast foods in this country and their health effects ! The result would be shocking !

This is not surprising with the amount of illegals we have here. They are famous for hitting people cars in the south west and running in the Bushes ....leaving vehicle's and all !

New Fortress in already supplying LNG energy to Jamaica, so its proven and will work. Short of solar and other renewables , Thats the way to go ! Hope other will see the results and go that route.

While a credit Bereau is what we need in the Bahamas the reality of our situation is that We have become a consumerism society just like all western countries.The financial discipline it takes to avoid living like the proverbial Joneses family is very hard to attain because of the modern pressures to satisfy relationships, business partners and friends and family. The research that shows that 80% of Americans live from pay check to pay check is higher amongst Bahamians because our average salary in the Bahamas is much lower.and the loan portfolio of the commercial banks can bear witness to this fact. With a population of over 300,000 and a smaller banking population this country has a total loan portfolio (personal and Bussiness) in the thousands of accounts with billions owed to those institutions. . Satistics also show that most government employees have breached the 75% salary deduction threshold proving that we a "must have now" generation. The advancment in technology and the need to get the latest eg Iphones and in some cases one for each family member has greatly contributed to the joneses effect. Gone are the days when we only had to worry about a house phone, cooking on the rock oven in the back yard, and riding the horse and buggy. As society modernizes the joneses effect will only increase because no one is willing to live like those monks anymore. Those who do are ostracized and considered homeless or doing bad. The joneses effect is all about percieved status and only one percent of us have truly earned it.

This is a precedent setting case. The Law is the Law. Hopefully there are not many others in Haiti who were born here with the same issue and can prove it !

Repost ....Those folks in the pink building are the decendents of the visionaries who founded the port and the city of freeport. Second generation family members usually lack the vision of the founders so you are right in saying they collect big salaries. They are protectionist of their parents legasy. Hopfully some of the grand kids if educated properly will revive the vision if they are around !
