Peter Espeut | Cleaning Jamaica’s Augean Stables

[Sir X]

Whether we like to admit it or not, it has been an outside force - the International Monetary Fund - a river flowing through the government-managed Jamaican economy rife with 'blys' and waivers - that has been somewhat able to cleanse us of our filthy habit of fiscal indiscipline.

Our own security forces have not been able to indict anyone high up for gunrunning, drug dealing, political corruption, or bribery. Maybe we need to engage a Hercules from outside to do some serious detective work to clean our own Augean stables.

Good read.

[Sir X]

I would recommend two pieces of literature to understand Jamaica ,1st The trial and death of Socrates and 2nd the Birmingham letter.

The 1st is what happens when you question corruption by asking the obvious the 2nd is the consequences for not questioning corruption,the latter goes further and list methods to question.

I could read them a 1000s times.
