@Baseman:

"Anyway, regarding the Linden incident, go quarrel with Leroy Brummel.  I hope he becomes the next Commissioner." [Baseman]

is NOT a proper response to:

"BTW, "unisys" is not a word. Stop making up illiterate shit; restate, and then explain how the PNC "mass messaging" is worse than the recent Chronicle editorial" [Redux]

Your persistent resort to non sequiturs when you run out of argument is pathetic and sad!

When last have you look outside, the world passing you by.

real embarrassing when your shyte is held up to the light, eh?

This is an old and overused line. Come up with something original.

Yeah . . . by whom?

It was never before used on GNI . . . look it up you illiterate fool

ROTFLMFAO!!

Looks like GNI is your forum into Guyana.  Is this the best you have?  Boy, are you pathetic.

What's YOUR post count, idiot?

LOL

Haha, I can almost predict your comeback, you are like a poodle!  Redux, you ain't got anywhere to go, except GNI.  Dead duck.

You don't have the smarts to be witty . . . no matter how much you crib from my posts.

You have me laughing.  You should take up comedy central, you are gifted at it.

If you stopped laughing you'd burst into tears . . . I understand

Go review some more of my posts for tips and vocabulary, and don't try so hard . . . it's a process 

Dondadda I was never poor but we must always remember Dr Jagan words "The rich can take care of themselves it is the poor that we must take care of"

Remember those words Dondadda and live by them.

Well, I came from mid-class, that's a bunch of BS from Jagan.  The needs of all Guyanese are there, but some priorities may be different being rich, mid-class or poor.

Everyone needs security, everyone needs a proper and adequate emergency medical system, everyone needs good roads, power and infrastructure, everyone wants a decently educated workforce, the rich for good talented workers, the mid and poor, valuable and marketable skills. Life, liberty and limb cannot be bought and sold.  This is the most basic and fundamental role of Govt from which they build.

Every successful society have it's mix of the various classes whose faiths should be made to inter-twined by effective govt policy.  Govt should not promote the culture of "class-warfare" as is the implication of such statements from Jagan.  Leaders need to be very careful with their choice of words and the impact in national psyche.

The greatest flexibility the rich have, they could sell out and move with the families anywhere and be welcome to start over and build a new.  We saw it right before our eyes in Guyana.  Where did it get us, where did it get the Govt, the mid-class, the poor?  Infact, Govt's sometimes find the rich to be undesirable as they present a counter-weight to Govt's excesses.  So they prefer a "new rich", of their own making.

Baseman you are a wealthy man.  You don't have to worry about where your next meal is coming from.  It is the poor man who is trapped in poverty that has to worry about where his next meal is coming from.  Those are the people that Dr Jagan cared about. 

You sound like you support the Burnham=Jagdeo=Ramotar  equation of mixed economy. The problem is in the guyana context of mixed economy, family business have extablished monopolies that stifle competition and keep the poor in place.

Matter of scale.

Ha Ha ! Tea party is a proper definition of the AFC. 

The fact remains:

Linden pays $ 15 per kilowatt

Berbice pays $ 53 per kilowatt

Is this fair ?

The president must stand up to the KFC and PNC on this matter and the police must not hesitate to confront violent PNC and AFC thugs.

Linden does not deserve special treatment.

A major aspect of the situation.

The responsible thing for the PPP to do is what they should jahve done long ago.  And that is to address the massive unemployment and impoverishment of Linden and the rest of Region 10 that occurred with the semi collapse of the bauxite industry.

Unlike other parts of Guyana there are few alternate options available to the population.  As has been frequently pointed out to you, the poor soils do not allow agriculture as an option and care must be taken even for livestock if the water table....source of drinking water...risks contamination.

Were Linden an economically bouyant place this problem would not have occurred.  But instead ***** footing by both the PPP (as the governing party) and the PNC (which represents the area) has led to nonsensical plans aimed at mom and pop businesses which are useless in a region where there is limited consumer buying power....hence the failure of many of the business funded by LEAP.

The issue isnt the cost of electricity.  It is the ongoing economic collapse of Linden and the vast impoverishment and hopeless of those of its residents who havent abandoned the area.

The PPP has spent billions of dollars to rescue Berbice's economy.  What direct plans have they to do the same for Linden?  Infrastructural development, while appreciated doesnt profduce long term jobs in a region with limited alternatives to its dying industry.

Next time you rant think about this.  Think SKELDON.  How much was spent on that factory?

Is there somewhere in your elongated halabalu an opinion regarding the question I asked.

I did not see your question. However, I do not agree with phased in according to some metrics that equates Linden to GT or the rest of the country.

It should be what BOSAI sells for to Linden power with marginal administrative fees.

Dumbo, read my first statement of position followed by me question to you dumbo and the rest of your "jokers".

OK so when the PPP closes down Guysuco and thousands of mainly Indian families cry for support I will look forward to all your excuses about why these "hardworking" people shouldnt be left to starve.

The sugar industry ha smost money for several years and has benefoitted from massive support.  Indeed rather than privatizing it, a sthey did to bauxite, they left it open.  They knew full well that a privately owned sugar industry would slash costs, meaning massive hardshiops. Indeed when Graingare said, prior to the elections many of you all screamed that he was a racist.

Evidently you dont like the shoe when it is on the other foot.  If sugar is proftable it will be successfully privatized....and it hasnt for reasons that you are fully aware of.
