What is the PNM's plan for the economy?

[j.o.e]

Well ZR, truth is you shouldn't make policies to benefit your supporters. You make policies to benefit the country ....... This may sound foreign to you.
Betting establishments are woefully under taxed due to the nature of the business (there is nothing to account for to tax) so flat taxes are used.
They can absorb a lot more taxes before being financially strained.

Everyone fails to consider the amount of money laundering that goes on through the gambling establishments. It is by far one of the easiest ways to clean money. We should be taxing the sheit out of them and have serious regulation and oversight.

Gambling establishments are small change and new to block


There are ppl that moved from selling cloth to building and buying Malls , condos ect , thats where the real money is/was laundered.

They made they ill gains and are now financing this government and they are looking to squeeze them. out.

[j.o.e]

So we shouldn't tax establishments that are known havens for money laundering ZR? Take your time , think a little bit and respond without deflecting blame on PNM or Syrians ..... I'll wait

you really should get your facts straight and stop talking dotishness when pushing your anti-"cloth seller" agenda

[EmilioA]

You hadda forgive ZR. On the Arcelor Mittal thread he let slip that his main gripe against the Syrians is that they dont let anybody marry they daughters.

ZR totin feelings.

What sh!t is this. Decrease health?! Increase office of the PM???

What sh!t is this. Decrease health?! Increase office of the PM???

Other areas where decreases in allocations are to be recorded include: a $16 million reduction in the allocation of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development; a $10 million reduction at the Ministry of Sport and Youth Affairs due to a shifting of regional complex facilities; and a $6 million reduction in the allocation for the Ministry of Health due to the shift in responsibilities for HIV/AIDS to the Office of the Prime Minister.

PM is both a volcano and an hiv specialist? Very impressive indeed!!

Well you don't have to be a HIV specialist to manage a govt agency, they can hire one where needed. Nevertheless Ayanna Webster Roy is a junior minister in the OPM and would more than likely take charge of this.

[De Dragon]

Either you admit to talking rumshop talk or face the embarrassment of fumbling to find a source to substantiate your claims. Attacking me personally will not suffice for me calling you out from attributing false meanings to Dr. Rowley and calling those who disagree naive. Neither would it help when you reference a multi-million dollar study that has no proof of being multi-million dollar or being borne by the taxpayer. If you want to criticise the govt, criticise them on facts not on illusions of grandeur.

You wanna talk logic?
"Logicicize" this, why after spending said 500 mil, is there to be another multi-million dollar feasibility study?

Well now I am forced to believe that you are either illiterate, or that your comprehension skills have conveniently failed you. I posted an article with quotes by none other than the IDB rep to Trinidad and Tobago, alluding to a study. In the very article, Colm Imbert was quoted as saying that it is a feasibility study. What exactly do you want again in terms of a source? Maybe some pictures would help?

...and asking if I illiterate

You do realize that it is in quotation marks for a reason right? Like every single thing has to be explained to this guy!

[Habit7]

So you had multi-million dollar in quotation marks or is this another sad backpedal after making false statements again?

God you are exhausting with your PNM blinders on! You really feel that a study will cost ah 2 dollars? You real have me thinking with your playing ignorant and obtuse act now. I don't know the exact cost of this particular study, but it is safe to say it WILL be a multi-million dollar amount

Why not keep the HIV managed by the ministry of health?
This is weirdly reminding me of the contracted water treatment plant that had nothing to do with wasa.....although WASA do claim that they are the custodians of any and all water in the country

Rowley could manage and knows everything about everything.................. at least according to the uninformed here.

It's not called PNM blinders, it's called speaking from a position of fact. If you don't know, keep quiet. Or identify that you are speculating. But you like to rush in with your preconceived notions and argue as if your thoughts are true and my cited articles and quotations are just PNM propaganda.

HIV the disease is managed by a health provider but the HIV/AIDS agency manages mostly the social issues pertaining to the disease.

the Bajan $ is pegged to the USD at a 2 to 1 relationship. We have floating dollar that is controlled. It has allowed for us to have almost 3 times more foreign reserve import cover than Barbados.

Keep quiet? That's your response to debate and discussion? You really will defend anything that God-Rowley stick down your craw. Let me also know how exactly you Plan to keep me quiet right?

[Habit7]

I never said I plan to keep you quiet. But when you shooting off your mouth from a strong position of unrelenting ignorance, expect to look foolish when the facts embarrass you.

Yea I know. I was more alluding to the fact that this allocation adjustment is total BS.
Anyone who thinks this logically makes total sense, not too smart.

[sMASH]

Wham, he hadda buy drugs for conditions we don't know about?
If i hadda move aids money from the ministry of health to another body, is ministry of education I would put to handle it.

Looks like the government trying to get the population to strike and rebel.

That won't happen. Is PNM in power. Everybody quiet.
