When you are a racist and you attempt to condemn another racist intellectually. Very soon your own racist ideology will poor out. And when you start receiving the same condemnation you were trying to give Theodore, you lash out in nastiness.

Welcome to Trinituner.


How can you say "When you are a racist and you attempt to condemn another racist" when you never condemned Theodore until you saw it as your only avenue to save face.

You were holding hands with Theodore with his racist claims.

Was there anyone from the African community that condemned Theodore's statements?

Tuntsy did Well, kinda), if Tuntsy is indeed Afro, or maybe he's a tortured, trolling Indo, but his reasons weren't to condemn racism, it was to try to show other 2NRers as racist ironically by also appearing to be racist himself :roll:


He said it was some UNC MP that was being racist for stating that Theodore's statements were wrong. Someone had asked him directly if he agreed with what Theodore said but he didn't respond. He waited until the next day to claim he had condemned the statement.

A pleasant afternoon Dragon.

I appreciate your metacognitive contribution...indeed you have done well to delve deeper into a discussion. i am rather impressed. hats off to you and you have earned cudos.

hmmm,

Your biases are alarming racist especially in a plural society.


Woe be unto us should you my dear tuner ever hold a position of authority.

What would your initiatives be like my dearest Dragon....race polarization affirmative policies for some but not others?

Don't make this political. Remember that every government is tasked with achieving the same goals according the Millennium Sustainable Development Initiatives.... how mentally incapacitated can you be Dragon? Have you read this document? speak from a sensible point....and especially from terra firma...or else u just jacka$$$ing the scene.

Dragon....YOU DO RECOGNIZE that the concept of GOOD GOVERANCE is the use of power for the delivery of goods and resources for the majority regardless of whether they voted for you or not?

Claiming now that some have ascendened while others have bot is a moot point. you show entirely your intellectual ineptitude. careful crossing the road ok...it might confuse you....this left right bussineness.

Theodore is defeating his own argument by say in some have been more advanced than others since it is equivalent to saying that the govt has been favoring some over others. its inane and enormously ridiculous to even purport this.

Lord...i beg for you to bestow intelligence upon...

Dragon. Grow up.

As previously said.


many are schooled but few are educated.


have a marvelous day. be safe...mask up and sanitize ok,

You realize that you come off as a boorish snobby faux "educator"?
You realize that also come across as incredibly naïve if you believe that ANY T&T government doesn't have explicit bias towards their supporters/base right?
You realize that while you wish to appear intellectual, your spelling, punctuation, grammar and syntax are of the Primary school level?
You realize that you're boring and tiresome already?

Theodore...poor fellow...schooled but not educated.

i read through Wraith...as an educator myself it astonishes me that this devolves into race...its not race...but culture as a variable of social stratification...but education has become the new variable of social class structures and while thuggery may be seen with race specific strata...illiteracy isnt. illiteracy exists across the board...it manifests in behaviour like i see here in many comments. that being said i am loath to judge...lest i too be judged. people will hold their anachronistic and biased views regardless...and again like an ironic red herring argument...education is the only avenue available to break the bondage of illiteracy and stupidity and race and gimme gimme,,,,u have i take because...and because...and because.

its farcical until we as a post colonial society learn that we are underdogs and need to congeal in order to succeed. the distrust and mistrust of the colonial era must be overcome especially through education.

consider this....education is the only practical mechanism through which real cultural change can be wrought. its the only way that we can change the way of thinking of our people.

Intelligence and morals have no value to the two party supporters when it comes to politics.

Using the current situation we are in, most PNM supporters will rather suffer than admit the party they support got it all wrong. I'm not saying they have to stop supporting the party but at least hold them accountable to do better but it seems.they simply can't even begin to admit to themselves the party has done the nation wrong much less demand reasonable action to remedy the situation. However, blind loyalty not going to put food on the table. I would reserve being hopeful that the situation opens persons eyes as they seem to be hypnotised or under some sort of political spell.

An wa d ass wrong with yuh blind party loyalty putting food on the table, yuh ent see the scum that is CEPEP folks getting paid or wa, is d hard working man getting retrenched or no pay leave; employees of gimme gimme programmes and public service quite safe an comfy gettin paid to do the bare minimum so voter based locked, 2025 election is easy peezy, ah mean which person don't like free money, even ah hyena in the jungle could appreciate da.

That's why cepep expenditure peaked 2010 -2015...cuz PNM.
That's why tanty kams flams with unemployment numbers below 5% using Cepep as the tool to get it low.
That's why I've posted that by my numbers only 30% of Cepep expenditure actually make it to the target of the social programs.

But y focus on solely a 5 year period , who created CEPEP and URP oh great reddos, who has drained the treasury to feed its hyenas and whoever the other 70% goes to for the majority of the time since independence using said gimme-gimme make work programmes?

Are you saying under a single Kamala term that more money was wasted with gimme-gimme programmes than under the total 40-50 years of pnm reign?

Was it beneficial to the economy and productivity of T&T that the PNM created these programmes or was it simply to lock in its voter base?

This is the typical inconsistancy with you all.

If in one voice PNM is wicked and like to suffer the ppl and they don't care about poor ppl.
But in another voice they like to give handouts create depancy hence CEPEP is bad.

So in 2010 you vote PP and this happens.

Ministers change views on 'dead-end' jobs
New jockey on the tiger's back
Published on Nov 18, 2011, 10:56 pm AST


Opposition Leader Dr Keith Rowley and former prime minister Patrick Manning have both knocked Government's "Colour me Orange" programme, saying that when the United National Congress (UNC) was in Opposition they openly criticised these very types of programmes and today they are following the very same path which they condemned.

The following are some of the comments made in the past by now Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, Housing Minister Dr Roodal Moonilal and Attorney General Anand Ramlogan on Community-Based Environmental Protection and Enhancement Programme

(CEPEP) and Unemployment Relief Programme (URP) programmes.

Then Opposition MP Kamla Persad-Bissessar on May 6, 2010, at a political meeting in Couva where she slammed the former Government on crime, said:

"Manning allowed a handful of criminals to blossom and grow. The PNM nurtured these infant gangs with lucrative URP and CEPEP contracts. He called them 'community leaders' and wined them and dined them.

"He exploited their vulnerable dependency syndrome, because he wanted to ride the back of the tiger into political office. Now, he can neither dismount, nor wound this creature that he has created, for fear that this very tiger will discriminately devour even the hands of those that once fed it."


Kamla Persad-Bissessar, in her 2006/2007 budget reply, also criticised the People's National Movement (PNM) for low-level income programmes:

"The UNC government of 1995-2001 created over 85,000 well-paid, permanent jobs. By our policies we inspired job creation in the private sector. We moved the unemployment figure from almost 19 per cent in 1995 to 10 per cent by 2001. We did not use URP, CEPEP and MUST to further disempower and humiliate the jobless into a dependency syndrome.

"Mr Speaker, it is on this matter that the opposition wishes to express the highest level of condemnation of the Manning administration. The PNM has introduced a backward and archaic labour strategy of shoving the low-skilled into a dependency syndrome and therefore presiding over the inter-generational transfer of poverty and dependency.

"They should take a bow! Very few governments have destroyed their own supporters in this way."


Government Minister Dr Roodal Moonilal had issued a press release in March 2006, knocking the then PNM government for boosting employment in the CEPEP and URP programmes:

"The PNM government has taken the dependency syndrome to new heights by creating a form of white-collar DEWD or ten-days syndrome. Today, unlike in the past, even those with secondary or tertiary education are on temporary jobs, which when concluded leaves them to beg for more short-term jobs," he said.

Attorney General Anand Ramlogan, in his column in the Guardian in August 2007 entitled "A loveless thing" criticised the former PNM government on CEPEP programmes.

"Which parent dreamed of having his or her child become a CEPEP worker? Is this what the original grandfathers in PNM heartland areas expected after almost half-a-decade of PNM rule?

"Surely, the dream was that their grandchildren will be the ones driving past in air-conditioned cars on their way to work, waving to the less fortunate in our society who are forced to resort to cutting grass by the roadside to make a living!


"There is no future in CEPEP. It is a dead-end road. It is not a serious career option. It does not add value to the economy. To perpetuate this dependency syndrome is a crime against humanity and makes the PNM 'a loveless thing'."

...CEPEP workforce doubled to 11,000
Jul 8, 2011

Cabinet took a decision to almost double the Community-based Environmental Protection and Enhancement Programme (CEPEP) workforce to satisfy the need for labour in various areas that were unrepresented, Government Minister Dr Roodal Moonilal said yesterday.

Following a tour of the Government Campus Plaza and Tower D at the Waterfront, Port of Spain, Moonilal confirmed that the number of CEPEP workers increased from 6,000 to 11,000 since the People's Partnership government came into power.

"Between May 2010 to May 2011 the employment level in the CEPEP increased from approximately 6,000 to 11,000. There was an increase pursuant to a Cabinet decision, an increase in the number of contractors to satisfy the need of various geographical areas that were unrepresented," said Moonilal.

He said CEPEP was restructured because there were contractors in the programme for eight years.

He said in this restructuring exercise 150 workers were affected.

However, Moonilal said steps were being taken to ensure no one was jobless.

CEPEP established an employment bureau at its Chaguanas headquarters, where affected people could register in order to be re-employed, he pointed out.

Moonilal added that CEPEP was mobilised and on full alert in the event of any flash flooding or natural disasters caused by the inclement weather expected this weekend.

So in 2015 you vote for PP? You are contradicting yourself by your own standards. The very thing you criticising PNM for, finding their superlative in the UNC. So when you have your choice to make you are choosing a party that is more corrupt, more spendthrift, less income building and more contradictory than the PNM. You are the one making this about CEPEP, so out of the two parties handling CEPEP it would be that the PNM gave better management. And had the UNC existed prior to the PNM they would have just put in their version of Colour Me Orange or whatever program.

You need to deal with your hypocrisy. The issue is not me as a person but the facts I lay out. You all can't deal with them so you attack me. It is looking more and more pathetic when you all do so because I know it is hitting you where it hurts so you lash back nasty. I will continue to do so until you all deal with the facts.
