SVG becoming a dead end country, an autocracy, a dictatorship

Editor: So the great tap dance on “Integrity Legislation” continues. There is this reason, and that excuse, and this equivocation offered — all to forestall, delay, or eliminate the possibility of transparency. Keep the people in the dark at least until the end of the hereditary rule (Camillo, Storm, etc). It worked in Haiti; why not in an equally ignorant, fundamentalist oriented country like here? You don’t have to fool everyone, just the people that already support you.{{more}} No popular insurrection against “Anti-Bullying,” because the man in power’s supporters don’t use the Internet, and they are against those that do, as “the elitist”, i.e. the educated and informed.

The Opposition is not the NDP; the Opposition is every independent thinking person on the island who suffers because of the failed economy, bad roads, business closures, low wages, lack of opportunities either as an entrepreneur, or an educated employee who simply wants to better himself. This is a dead-end country, an autocracy leading itself into a Haiti-styled dictatorship. Deal with it as best you can. It’s your future.
