Wow, it's "Deja Vu all over again"

Welcome to the discssion, miss t

Here we go again! We couldn't afford an $18 million hospital, so we got a $48 million (and still counting) hospital. Funny how the same "representative" is responsible for both?? Fees for medical services to rise a total of over 100% in the near future?? I'm headed to Miami for my care, thank you! It is already far more expensive to seek medical care here as it is. I tired to have minor surgery here, and it was to cost CI $7500.00. Total cost including travel, lodging AND medical expenses in Miami, US $3570.00. What's wrong with this picture?

I'm sure the land for the new EE port has already been bought, with a nice hefty commission to the seller (guess who?) and it is we Caymanians who will be footing the bill for the rest of our lives for the added costs in delivery of goods.

I agree, it is time to march on the LA and send a loud and clear message to the "powers that is" that we are no longer going to tolerate the wholesale destruction of our homeland. Face it, we have nowhere to go, unless we decide to take up residence in the UK or EU. Who wants that, when we could have our own quiet place in the sun right here.
