| Ah! Princey. You indeed know your history. Burnham's infamous Billion dollar sugar levy. And people like to talk a lot of crap. I am impressed.

Nandy, let's say I was privy to the sugar industry's real performance.
And it was damned good !!
Bauxite and ill conceived diversification projects drained the sugar industry of its profits.

Naaaah..........actually the sugar estates operated at a profit, Nandy.
Sugar was king !
The problem was that most of the foreign exchange produced by the sugar industry was sunk into the loss making bauxite industry.
That is where the problem was.
Damn BP this is a reading room Yu stirring up an ants nest with that bauxite subsidy.Skunts stole all of the money and spent it in their own pockets too

I am well. I check the board from time to time for anything interesting.
Regarding the post to the library, i sent some material back at Xmas for Stevie but he has probably forgotten to make the update
