NIB serves a great purpose in this country .............. It is so sad that the politicians have abused the Board over the decades and milked it as a cash cow like all of the other SOEs.
This is the biggest problem in our country .......... brainless, corrupt and greedy politicians with NO vision for our future.
Why should the ordinary citizen be left to clean up the mess that the politicians created????
How can Haiti flourish????? It was a country of black slaves who broke the back of white imperialism in 1804.
It was handcuffed by France & USA from Day 1. It is no Israel, or even Japan or Germany.
Both are imperialist countries who sit as permanent members on the UNSC ........ No chance in hell for Haiti to get a fair shake in international negotiations.
PowerSecure 2.0 is going to be even more burdensome on Bahamians ........ This time,bit won't be just a study & a plan, it will be a wholesale takeover.
But, what will the Pikes & Snakes be getting at our collective expense????
When a PM can establish a Constitution for an independent nation ....... and then fail to have it taught as a mandatory subject in ALL Bahamian schools ............. That is when dumbing down begins.
We are reaping a harvest of 3 generations of dumbed down citizens ........... They do not have a clue of what it means to be a Bahamian
The poorest country in the Americas with 12 million people, ruled by gangs and overflowing with guns and drugs cannot be fixed by The Bahamas, nor caricom ....... The OAS & UN seem not to be interested in fixing Haiti ........... So, this will be a long-term problem until a strong man dictator rises up to control the embattled impoverished and socially dysfunctional nation.
