This is for your information and development only Gary, this is what Thomson is capable of accomplishing:
What Is an Economist?
An economist is an expert who studies the relationship between a society’s resources and its production or output, using indicators to predict future trends. They study societies ranging from small, local communities to entire nations, and even the global economy. The insights of economists have an influence on policy-making and assist both governmental and corporate strategies. They usually need an advanced degree, like a master’s or Ph.D., along with a specialization in areas like finance or analytics. There is a demand for economists, particularly in government, academia, and the private sector.
Economists’ expert opinions and research help shape policies like interest rates, taxes, employment, trade, and corporate strategies.
You can’t compare Roosevelt corrupt politics, with what is in Thomson Fountain’s head!
I thought those blue clowns said people did not attend blue rallies because they were afraid of being victimized.Even a handful of people employed in the NEP programme were there.So people are not afraid to attend the blue clowns rallies,it is just that the clowns are in the minority.UWP cannot win an election in Dominica
@Clown… Boy clown why are you panicking so much? You just started to see a little bit of drizzle rain.. Very Soon you be calling all Dominicans traitors..
Still waiting to hear or see breakdowns of ten point pillars and how they are incorporated into a developmental plan. We need more info on how for example, they intend to create the jobs to keep young people in Dominica and not go further afield too seek employment. What they will do to develop agriculture and tourism. How they intend to create prosperity for the Kalinago people. How they intend to utilise our water resources into a viable industry etc. etc. etc. we want more substantive info about these pillars and not just rhetoric. When will they publish this plan so that everybody can scrutinise objectively? DNO is a good platform to premier this plan.
DASS story did not disappear.
Let me as that dunce Ibo,why do you think your your fake Prime Minister cannot get a job as a PhD in economics?
Because he is a liar and carries a bag of dishonest like a gold medal,just look how he and his gang of traitors undermined Lennox Linton.
You know you are just about the most stupid, idiot to ever write a comment in this forum! I don’t have to defend someone as lbo; except to say look who is taking!
No question in my mind that lbo woman or man can use you as their floor mat with eyes closed, and you would not even know you got kicked, you are an exceptional dunce.
Remember when the British government approached Thomson Fountain and offered him the job in Africa to assist in the development of that new nation, all of you gutter people; nasty red devils claim he only got the job because nobody else wanted it? If you were not a founded idiot; you would have come to the realization that it is because of his PhD in economics that afforded him that opportunity.
If Dominica was not a backward place without any job opportunities, no industries except the sale passports; he could have found work as an economist.Thomson taught economics here in the USA: his PhD gave him that opportunity, did you dumb dummy know that? Shut-up!
Oh Francisco Etienne-Dods Telemaque, what’s with your
pathetic silliness, that ego of yours, when are you going to put it on a leash. Why do you think that someone with a specialized knowledge of Economics as Thomson qualifies him to be the perfect candidate for PM in Dominica, what a narrow concept. What about character, pervious work ethics and other soft skills, why overlook these things.
Isn’t Labour power entitled to his opinion, what this foolishness about “Shut-up” and why is he a stupid, idiot to ever write a comment or participate expressing his opinion on his forum. The never ending saga of
Francisco Etienne-Dods Telemaque.
Gary, I don’t mind you thinking of me as a silly; or even a stupid, person; it takes one to actually know the other. Most of the time no matter how effective is the message, it is never accepted, or appreciated as long as it emanates from the intellectual mind of a certain messenger! If your question is what qualifies Thomson to be prime minister of Dominica, I can asks you what qualifies Roosevelt Skerrit to be prime minister, any place on the planet. In the first place we know from what institution Thomson graduated, we know from which educational institution he obtained his Ph.D..
Secondly: you mention ethics; it appears to me Gary; you are not quite familiar with term; so here it is: ethics is the moral principles that govern the individual, or a person’s behavior, or the conducting of activities. Would you claim that Roosevelt possesses such ethics? How can a corrupt man be considered ethical; that can only happen in your, and the rest of the red devils world! We don’t…

I want to make sure you read it all Gary!
… We don’t know Thomson to be an unethical person; nevertheless; I can’t give that credit to Roosevelt! All of you are dismissing the fact that a British government sort-out Thomson and gave him a Job to organized, (assists in setting up a new nation in Sudan in Africa). Don’t you believe some serious vetting of Thomson ability, educational accomplishments had to be taking into consideration; such as his performance at the IMF or world Bank during his tenure at that institution?
If Thomson is not qualified; who is?
Above the natural stronghold of Grand Fond was the camp of Mabouya’s Maroons freedom-fighters, as M. Craton wrote (Testing the Chains 1982, 144) and later Honychurch copy-paste (1995, 2014, 2017..)The presence of a meeting of the businessmen’s and conservatives’ UWP in that sacred place is a profanation, even though few people went and many were forced or bribed. UWP militants are being deceived by an apocalyptic, catastrophist rhetoric. So, get out of there IMF-boy Fontaine with your MAGA-style sloogans and instructions! Dominica will continue its path towards economic independence and social justice and will not be indebted by the World Bank as you wish. What has UWP done for Dominica? Only progressive DLP can assure a future for our Nation, because only DLP has a long term national purpose, based on the people and for the people!
Mabouya.. can’t you see the people of Dominica are desperate for a change?
No jobs.. passports not selling again… coconuts and bananas have failed… visas are on a stand still.. who do dat? Skerro did dat!!! It’s time to keep him out people of Dominica!!
That turnout confirms that Dominicans are ready to send Alibaba and his Forty packing. I don’t believe Alibaba slept last night after seeing the crowd, though many thousands of voters did not go. The only problem is Alibaba will cancel the date he had for the snap election because I know he fraid. But Alibaba, the longer you wait the worse it will get for you
Have you read the folk tale of Alibaba & the forty thieves, lol
does the present Government really fit the context of his tale.
Do you think that what Dominicans saw at that rally truly represent a party that is ready to form a Government to Govern Dominica, so long.
You are umbilically attached to the infidel Roosevelt. It’s as though he birthed you.
You complete and unabashed hero-worship of this serial Liar reveals everything about your character. Only miscreants, evil-doers, scoundrels and rogues would give their unreserved support to such an unrepentant outlaw..
All I’m doing is asking questions, and do you think that your reply validates your description of me because of the questions I’m asking, lol, you that Ibo France, so long. I’m never surprised by your behaviour.
Thomson Fontaine has declared his full support for Trump and has declared to do whatever the 34 count convicted felon in the white house demands if the Dominican voters are foolish enough to elect to office. Thompson must be aware that Trump was elected to put America first and he is doing just that, so does Thompson and the UWP want Dominicans to vote for them so they can also put the interest of America first. Thompson must tell Dominicans which American officials he spoke with while he was in Washington.
Not only did the size of the crowd cause panic and fear in the camp of the Evil one but the people I saw dressed in blue, knowing how deep red they use to be 5-7 years ago, really got my attention. Seems like there is still some hope left
Wow, is this the observation you use to give you
hope, don’t you think it is limited.
Chou-Yoe Paytay!
I am already singing sanky for Chichi and Commissioner M-Lissa
Keep on singing, it has good therapeutic benefits, singing appears to play a role in helping the brain repair itself from damage, but be vigilant ( Chou-Yoe Paytay) of the words in the song you sing so long.
Send Alibaba and the forty thieves packing and welcome the man from DAAS with loads of deposits that Gabriel is looking for..
