We did warn in our previous articles of the need to invest heavily in Agriculture, Education, and housing to alleviate the fallout from the pandemic. Natural corrections due to global warming is a worldwide phenomenon but affect poor countries as ours adversely. Our Prime Minister continuing his path of corporate profiteering has decided to tap the workers saving at the National Housing Trust to plug the deficit of the pandemic cost. He could have approached the private sector for help given that they have benefited handsomely from Peter Philip's private sector/ IMF initiatives. He could have tapped the JDX or called for the forgiveness of all international debt, he would be one of many on the international scene calling for such.  Our government is beholden to the western prescription not to our people who must bear the brunt of the gambling arrangement that benefits only the rich worldwide.
