So many people wanting to leave the PPP's paradise, or paradise lost?

We are such a rich country but we live pauperized lives because our govt just wants to thief. Our leaders see the state as something to be exploited and raped for its resources. The wealth does not trickle down; it stays with the new parasitic bourgeoise with which the PPP is aligned.

Jay, go down around your corner at RH and see real pauperization in the great US of A. Do the same thing in front of the White House.

Nearly every Guyanese have a Cell Phone and a car underneath the bottom house. Deny that and I will tell you that you are lying.

Is pauperization OK in USA? In the USA there are more working slaves doing 2 or 3 jobs to make ends meet. In the USA you have no paid National holidays. How many paid holidays Guyana give its people? This in the most powerful country in the world. Don't compare Guyana to the USA.Check out the affluent Americans includung Gov't Officials and see where they live?
