while Karl and Jawge people dem condemn us to the depths of mediocrity.
They have Jamaicans claiming 6% growth as an impossible target over the 'medium term'. Not only is the economy effed.. the psyche of the people is effed up.
Karl, Jawge and the apologists.. defend unnuh people.
The anaemic yearly growth rate of the Jamaican economy did not escape Shaw's attention.
"The minister of finance said that last year the economy grew by 2.5 per cent. On average the minister of finance has been able to generate an annual growth of less than one per cent (0.8 %) in his 14-year tenure.
"Latin America grew at an average of 5 per cent and the global economy at over 6 per cent. In fact, with the exception of Guyana, Jamaica grew at a slower rate than every other Caribbean nation, over the past year. Even Haiti's growth rate was at Jamaica's level," said Shaw.
Why do comrades see growth as a bad thing ?? Karl, can you assist here ?
