Dear Editor,
I will take this opportunity to leave this little note with regard to the Bill Johnson poll on the Government's handling of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) deal.
My personal stand from the outset is that we should never have gone to the IMF. And, had we not, we would now be much better off as a people.
And, still, we are not going to achieve the positives indicated, as the missing ingredient in this scenario is the will to produce.
All this financial quandary is happening to us as a nation because we are not productive, and no government has got the vision, the focus, the ability, the knack, the desire, and the drive to help us to produce.
The policies that are in place have been outdated and their reviews seem to be taking decades to be overhauled. So, let us ask ourselves the question: How do we get out of this mess?
The bottom line is that we need to produce and, like a man with his hands and feet tied, we can go nowhere or do anything industrious until we begin to raise productivity.
Our economic policies have tied both hands and feet and we further compound the situation with transactions with the International Monetary Fund that still do not bring forth the missing ingredient.
Let us be positive, put the economic policies in place, and get the missing component, which is production, so we can move forward as a nation.
