Exactly. A Bahamian passport is no guarantee to entry to the US. They're not going to allow someone without the means to pay for what I'm sure is a very expensive surgery to enter the country. Maybe they've been in contact with the hospital and they're going to do it free? Even then, in this political climate, there's very little chance they allow her to enter the country.
How did they hook up to BEC and Water & Sewage? I'm a Bahamian, I had to take papers proving I owned the land, was a legal resident and more to get connected. I tried to get Cable Bahamas installed early but was told I needed an occupancy permit before I could get it.
Over the past year to maybe two years, driving at least weekly on the highway between Marsh Harbour and Treasure Cay, I've been amazed how many people are passing on corners and into oncoming traffic. I'm not talking about waiting a little late to pass, these fools are passing causing the oncoming car to slow down to avoid a collision. They are passing on a blind corner where they are on the wrong side of the road while driving through the corner. I'm amazed that there aren't weekly head on collisions. Then there's the usual pulling onto the highway at the last minute in front of you, causing you to slam on the brakes to avoid a collision.
Why is it that illegals continue to build whatever and wherever they want, but as soon as a Bahamian digs a hole in the ground or puts up a fence, government officials are swarming like flies to stop you?
You mean Tampico the liquid sugar drink? Anyone ever look at the label on one of them? It is loaded with sugar then two types of artificial sweeteners on top of that! No wonder the Bahamas leads the world in diabetes and obesity.
The average Bahamian is just nasty and doesn't see this as being a problem. Honestly, has anyone ever seen a government run building that was clean? I'm still looking!
There's no doubt that many have bought their license, but just because someone knows what they're doing is wrong, isn't going to stop them from doing it.
So what happens to me if I went to the big shiny new government building in Marsh Harbour, went into the Road traffic office and paid cash and received my license stickers like I've always done and they didn't record the transaction? I did nothing wrong, but I could potentially be driving around with illegal stickers.
They're just trying to buy more votes for the PLP. If this same government somehow manages to get re-elected, I'm moving. There's no future with them in charge.
