Bozo was just voted out, now you have Homey. So why not vote for the DNA if the PLP mess up. A person shouldn't base their vote upon a party because the amount of votes that they got, you should base that upon what policy they at least say they are planning on putting in, you know for years that the other two parties have been telling you one thing and then don't do it, for Bahamians to vote FNM if the PLP mess up is no different than a woman who keep listening to her man telling her sorry after he spank her.
Thank you John, but even this lead to owning your own farm someday.Bahamians look at jobs in glory and I was somewhat that way back then, if you pay them $7/hr to work at the bank and dress up that is good and everyone look up to them but the conch man is look down as a lesser even though you may speak to him, but at the end of the day the person making $7/hr and all of his/her co-workers spend an hour and a half pay to buy conch salad and he just made about $100 in that hour. So money might not be everything but hey at the end of the day the conchman as well as the farmer or any type of jobs that most brainwash Bahamian snub their nose at makes more than them.
Why people keep saying money given away? a loan is not giving money away! Besides no one is going to give someone 100% of what is needed to start up any business because of what you are saying, but low interest loans to people who is putting something up to start a farm or any business that can help lower prices and keep money in the Bahamas. I understand what you were talking about earlier with people using the boats and not bring in most of the supplies to market to make a cut for themselves, because a lot of Bahamians don't think about tomorrow when they do these things, but the main problem is the government don't have checks and balance to make sure people follow through on things, and they loan to people who is part of the click first before people who is qualified.
I also spoke of equipment rental in response to those who was talking about manuel labor, but government investments in terms of loan will help farmers and the government, because a prosporous economy is a friend to any government. I think the rate of poverty is in because Bahamians rely on foreign supply to much, look at the amount that is pour into the Florida economy every year it is just as much as our GDP. So i'm for anything that will encourage Bahamians to spend that money in the Bahamas.
Look i'm not talking about free bee, i'm talking about nation building, Interest low loans to help and encourage farming. When people can get local produce for cheaper prices, now they have more money to spin elsewhere in turn helping the economy. In the U.S the government gives farmers incentive to farm and some people call it welfare for farmers, but if the farmers don't farm then they go hungry and complain about something else.. I never said just go out give crackheads and stupid people money, in fact I never said just go out and give anyone money for that matter, I said low interest loans, which you would have to pay back with interest, so get your story straight.
Having an argriculture industry is essentrial to any nation building look at any great country and see argriculture is big and if these country can do it, you mean to tell me Bahamians are to big to do it?. Look i'm working on my masters and i'm not saying that I will be field hand but I will certainly entertain having a farm of my own whenever I move back home because I think it is important and could eventually help the economy by keeping that money in the country that goes out to import. Everybody can't be doctors and Lawyers, so someone have to do it, it is hard work but other businesses can spring up from it. It can lead to products being made in the Bahamas like ketchup, and other stuff, also farm equipments could be a business by rental
Some folks always look at the negative part that is why they don't see farming as a viable option. Every sector need workers other than the laborers like you said, scientist, IT personnel, project management and so fort. If some kind of major desaster happens to country that export to the Bahamas people will starve and that is foolish to happen to a country that can produce just about anything. So I agree with what you're saying.
If the people is fed up with the PLP already and voted the FNM out just less than 2 weeks ago, you think their are going to play ping pong and just vote the FNM back in like that? you don't think the DNA will have a say with all of the younger generation that will be ready to vote come next election.
