		<description><![CDATA[Reads like a repeat of Alan Stanford wooing Antigua with promises of riches. They fell for it and he used them. Now look where they are. Why do other locations refuse these companies entry, yet Bermuda welcomes them? They are welcomed because they will help create the regulations - what could possibly go wrong? Watch to see how these companies now become involved in the casino business. 70 jobs created but thousands destroyed.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[But are they (the Dept. of Immigration) still being dicks about other work permit applications?

I applaud this type of move, but really what it talks to is the existing process. It&#039;s designed to protect Bermudians, but is applied arbitrarily at the whim of Immigration officials. It&#039;s too long, laborious and outcomes are inconsistent. 

It needs a complete overhaul and this type of change wouldn&#039;t be required. It needs to say &quot;we&#039;re open for business&quot; and it doesn&#039;t.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[They&#039;re opening the floodgates.  Let&#039;s all blockade Parliament.   

When is Brown going to be doing a series of Town Hall meetings to explain all this?   Or is he too arrogant to talk to the electorate about it?  

Still not one single Bermudian job created by this government.   It&#039;s like I&#039;m a second-class person in my own country.]]></description>
