Businesses hire people who pay taxes. If things don’t turn around this year mine will close. Sugar tax is an affront to the intelligence of our people, oops our people voted you in, maybe we aren’t intelligent. The good ship Bermuda is sinking and nobody is actually on the wheel.

Absolutely nothing, because this government understands protectionism, and not economics.

Bermuda for Bermudians, even if it is a worthless Bermuda.

The PLP status quo – 20+ years of decline. Everyone of you who voted for this, you own it, it’s your fault. Do you understand yet?

Tell us it’s Amazon and killing business all over the world not the fact that gov has done NOTHING to help retail businesses be more competitive – e.g. import duty less than personal shipments if there is a bricks and mortar store! Nope. Gov is only interested in making as much money as they can because they have no clue and need every dime they can “steal” since they can’t control their own spending.

Help the stores stay open and employee people who pay all sorts of other taxes and have a pay cheque to spend and keep food on their table!!!

WE ARE SINKING
