Some good ideas here. Interesting that the web shop idea is tossed in there. 🙂
We need leaders with vision for sure. Both sides of the aisle are clearly deficient. We have to start thinking 20, 30, 50 year strategies. However, we lack political maturity to have one guy start something and another continue as it is in the best interest of the country.
We believe that the leaders in the UBP and early PLP built what lies before is now. However, everyone after didn't seem to realize that the house only had a foundation and a few exterior walls. A lot of building is still left to be done. But, no one is building.
We can blame Covid-19 for our economic issues now. But, lack of diversification is why we're here. We're a dependent independent nation. We depend on the rest of world for income and for food. We're now hearing of challenges with our foreign reserves. This isn't rocket science. No plan translates to an automatic failure.
There are issues here that need to be fixed. We.live in chaos to some extent. However, I you made an interesting point about linear programming. They are actually quite a few of us who understand linear programming and a lot more mathematical concepts who are being discarded within this country because of small minded views. Some of us excelled with our respective universities only to return to have a non-Bahamian instruct us what we are worth. What is worse is that they're often with a lower aptitude, yet folks like you spew this nonsense of where we all sit in the intellectual food chain. While we are changing what's broken in this country, let's change the screwed mentalities. There are a lot of brilliant Bahamians out there who can compete with anyone else in the world. When you've written a few theorems or have figured a better equation to identify all the infinite Mersenne Primes, let us the Math folks know.
