It's been raining all day and all night, but surprisingly no reports of flooding in Bim! I am feeling good after a week of a bug keeping me quiet the past week.The last while the big discussion here has been the recent Budget presented by the DLP government. Seems like a fairly balanced one except for the reduction of the reverse tax credit! I think that could have been left alone. Most likely the same savings would be achieved by efficiencies in all ministries! Seems that the payment of fees by students attending University of the West Indies in September 2014 is the hot topic instead of impact on those persons making less than $18,000 yearly. Most of the youth I've spoken with think that it is fair that U.W.I. students pay directly some of the costs (about 25%) of their education. Check out analyses by PWC, KPMG, and E and Y, and tell me what you think overall.
Off to catch up on some reading. Enjoy the remainder of August!
