Oh Pooh! Get a life! Bloody gov is helping no one. Who do they think is going to feed their lazy, greedy selves now that they have killed The Goose (The People)? Open up The Country, nationally, before you see REAL civil unrest. Stop using a particularly virulent strain of "influenza" to deprive The People of their Constitutional Freedoms! Remove the dictatorial influence from our Democracy before full Dictatorship is in place!!

Too bad you tyrants don't act as quickly as needed after TRUE disasters like devastating hurricanes. Leave Crooked and Acklins alone and TRY, you selfish politicians, to actually HELP The People of The Bahamas. THIS FNM Government is HISTORY!
