Shame on the government for not wanting to absorb the cost (VAT). Rather they prefer the small man to reduce their profits, rather than eliminating the VAT and/or eliminating import duties. Why should the profits for the small man be taken away. If the government cared so much about the people, they would reduce their revenue (eliminate any cost for imports and VAT).
Is it really the whole responsibility of any government to ensure proper up keep? Yes, in some aspects but it also includes the mindset of us Bahamians. For example, if you go to Spanish Wells their Island is so clean and pristine. Nor there are any "ghettos" in Spanish Wells. Those people take pride of their Island. At no point in time, can you find a piece a paper or can on the side of the road.

I am pretty sure if the FNM and Minnis were still in power, they would have blamed them for it, too. Just like how people blamed the FNM for COVID.
