Seymour has proposed an infrastructure fee based on miles driven that could bring in some $40 million, as well as directorship fees, boat licensing fees, garbage fees attached to water bills and a liquidator fee. However, despite the premier’s calls for solutions, most of Seymour’s ideas have been rejected.

    There have been a lot of good ideas floated over the past 10 years. All of them ignored. Why? Corruption, laziness, thin skinned egos.

     

    What a sad state of affairs.

     

    What a deep hole we have dug for ourselves.

     

    Gird your loins, Cayman. It will be very hard work indeed to dig ourselves out of this mess. Be prepared for a lot of sweat and tears (with McKeeva looking down from his air conditioned Ritz-Carlton patio).
