Thank you Torontogal. The scatological thinking of John and sheeprunner is unfortunately prevalent in todays society. This issue is not a referendum on Marion Bethel, but rather, on whethr rape is rape. At least "sheep"runner is true to his name.
OldFort2012, my next comments are in no way to be disrespectful. So if you don't mind a reasoned rebuttal to your comments then I shall proceed. I submit that your comments only prove the redundancy of this Bill. If, as you suggest, that Steve Jobs, from the origins of his garage in the US, was able to create 1116,000 jobs (and is, of course a billionaire), the logical question then is: why come to the Bahamas if he can derive the benefits he derived in the US? For that matter, why would Jack Ma leave China and come to The Bahamas? Or Shawn Parker (showing my age I know) ? Or the Winklevoss twins? This Bill provides no incentive for anyone engaged in the businesses mentioned in the Bill to lure them to The Bahamas. As is currently drafted, the Bill is, at best redundant (most of the provisions already form The Bahamas' National Investment Policy) and at worst, a gigantic waste of time which will not benefit anyone save for the lawyers and consultants paid handsome amounts to draft the same.
