A bleak future?


(copyright Karsten71)
I look at the picture of this child and wonder whether there will be anything for him to inherit when he comes of age. Everytime I open the newspaper the CHOGM scandal burns my eyes, how much worse can it get.

Now half way through the financial year the government has requested parliamet to cut the health, education and agricultural budgets. Good lord in heaven, it does not take rocket science to know that our hosppitals are crumbling, our kids are studying under leaking roofs and agriculture is the back bone of our economy...so why would anyone think it prudent to cut the budget of these vital sectors.

The real kicker in this tale ( or stinger in this tail) is that State House and the Office of the president have asked for their budget to be increased...in the same breath.

Am I missing something????????
