JOSEPH Hamilton has charged that Carl Greenidge, ‘the food banner’, had failed miserably to present any alternative as the Opposition’s pointsman on finance.
Carl ‘the food banner’ Greenidge, proved very clearly to be deficit at finances, math and addition, but very good at minus as in taking away. Carl ‘the food banner’ Greenidge and the PNC know perfectly well how to minus, since they banned (minused) food from Guyanese. Some people in the National Assembly need dunce caps.
On the criticism of the social sector, Joseph Hamilton underscored the fact that fingers are quickly pointed at the Government, particularly as it relates to children and the social ills they are exposed to such as teenage pregnancy, alcohol abuse, drugs, etc. But he posited that the real questions are not being asked, which is: What of the parents.
“Completely divorced from this discussion (are) the persons responsible. Where are the fathers and mothers?” Hamilton asked. Thank the Lord! At least one person knows and tries to expose the real deal with the PNC when it comes to lawlessness.
All those black mothers and teens with babies and no fathers around become Government’s child/children. PNC encourages this lawlessness in order to perpetuate black population growth, which means votes for PNC in the future.
I could understand the PNC blasting Government when it comes to old age pensioners’ payments. The money for Linden electricity subsidy and the money spent on the GDF are a total waste of taxpayers’ money. All those things should be banned, and the money go to old age pensioners and public education, and to build large jails to ensure terrorists are housed for life where they will never rain terror on the innocent citizens again.
PNC will forever cry for more money for Police, Army and Public Service people, because most of these people vote PNC; but when PNC was in Government, they never raised their salaries, but froze wages instead, and terrorized their union leaders so there was no collective bargaining possible; plus they had to work for free, cutting cane and doing labour duties at Hope Estate and the pig farm.
It is strange how people are fighting to return to those days, even though today they own homes with nice furnishings, vehicles, modern conveniences, have more disposable incomes, and life is way better than the days of hunger and beggary under PNC rule.
