		<description><![CDATA[I look forward to seeing how much response they receive from the public on this.

I fear that those protesting on the hill are less concerned with providing alternative approaches and more interested in taking any opportunity to protest the OBA government. 

The fact that a select few are back on the hill after the OBA completely capitulated to the demands of the combined opposition shows that many just dont like who is making the decisions and it is less about actual policy.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now this process just needs to move forward. Too much in Bermuda ends up being kicked around and never really getting anywhere. A fully diluted outcome is just as useless as nothing at all.

Bermuda is dwindling. Those Bermudians who have left are going to be hard pushed to return unless the country gathers some economic pace. The population is in decline. Left alone the population will fall off and then Bermuda will be left with a very old, very stagnant population. Change needs to happen and unfortunately that means some very difficult decisions will need to be made and decisions and agreements reached. 

I hope that this working group and government can arrive at some tangible outcomes as failure to do so will not be a longer term good result.]]></description>
