Why is Rupert Pinder or Gowan Bowe never appointed to major posts in a FNM or PLP government? Is it that they speak out against the crap that is going on???
The Bahamian Church is in trouble because the congregation can't trust/respect their leaders in the same way that the citizens can't do the same for the politicians. Both Church & State are not respected by the people.
No more urban curfew. Anything goes now 24/7. For crime's sake NP needs a curfew. But the PLP will rather police go on wild goose chases like Wild Wild West
If every couple got divorced for "rape" and infidelity, there won't be any 242 marriages at all ..... Only a few ppl getting married anyway. They prefer shacking up or sharing other ppl man or woman. Sad situations
BPL is debt ridden and inefficient. Who will buy it? BPL is no BaTelCo. We made a big booboo with BTC, but selling BPL will be far more difficult. Easier to sell BOB and Bahamasair rather than BPL. But I doubt if the PLP will sell any of these entities. They opposed the sale of BTC, so why would they double take now???? Only the IMF will force the sale of these Bahamian SOEs.
40,000 work for Govt or corporations. Govt pays out $800 million in wages per year PLUS pensions to retirees. Plus Govt is responsible for BTC pension. Bear in mind that the corporations are all in debt and depending on Govt subventions. Plus the Govt is on the hook for $1.5 billion of anticipated pensions for its present workforce. So, we'll see if, how and when all of these bills will be amortized over the short term. The private workforce is more sketchy as many work in the informal sector.
The PLP won't do that ...... They must take care of friends, family and lovers ....... Most of the political elite have already stashed their money in USA, Canada etc ...... It's the poor and indebted that will catch hell and suffer when the crunch really starts.
If the PLP wants to do something of value, then it should tell the Bahamian people that it cannot borrow any more money, it must reduce the recurrent budget and it must cut future spending projections to make the country live within its means. Is that even possible????

These two are making it a race, but don't have a chance against Pintard. Except there's insider dirt involved.

This is from a man whose Govt monthly rent alone can hire a few people. Much less his six figure salary & benefits.
These entitled folk can surely talk some foolishness.

Agree to a point. Communication in marriage is the number one issue here.
How could the marriage partners get to the point where "rape" occurs, if the partners are not effectively communicating???
And even if "rape" is occurring, why is the victim not crying out??? Any feedback????
