Internet shopping and home delivery has been affecting the brick and mortar shops to some degree in the U.S. - people complain that retail is suffering with all of the production costs (rent utilities wages taxes) but its popularity is only one sector. Most retail and walk in wholesale shops do well when applying changes to their business formula. There are no real downsides, just excuses and scrambling to find somewhere to point blame when too lazy to figure out how best to use trends to benefit the retail industry.
So many people in charge of vehicles who cannot drive and should not be allowed on the roadways at all. Several years ago the plaque that was mounted on the top of Gregory's Arch denoting the date started and date completed,the architect's name - J. Burnside - and the governor of that period in time - Gregory. It was knocked down by a vehicle too high for the arch and never replaced. It is a destruction of a monument of historical value and an interesting visible record of history lost. WE have to learn to protect our few important historical articacts, and those who destroy them made to make good their damage.
$12,340.00 is such a ridiculously paltry amount to be charged for the amount of offences committed and the life taken. A firm review and imprisonment must be handed down as just penalty and a firm message to others who would do the same.
Moultrie should check his facts. He says that his wife is an indigenous Bahamian. That is totally wrong. The indigenous peoples were killed off and removed by the other existing tribes and the Spanish long before her ancestors or even the Eleutherian Adventurers came to our islands!
Mad Hatter is profiling Chinese Bahamians who have been here for generations because of their ethnicity. They have nothing to do with China of today and are as Bahamian as I am - and possibly you. Those with the least claim cast the most blame!
The ban is to be for single use plastic bags - not plastic bags in general which have other uses like garbage, storage and gardening. Styrofoam containers should be banned outright as there are alternative containers that look similar and serve the same purpose but do not have the same toxins in them which leach out into the food that they hold. These styrofoam contained meals are more often than not microwaved which accelerates the release of these toxins into the food or drink, and even if not microwaved, the ordinary heat from the food or drink releases these toxins into the contents of the styrofoam containers.
