I love St. George’s. It is unique. I hope to see it thrive.
But … the headline that Government is considering a 1 cent tax on every fuel sale to subsidize the town … I sure hope that’s a goofy trial balloon that gets popped quickly.
This is not a $1.2 million gift to the town; it’s another $1.2 million in taxes extracted from the community.
If Government wants to help St. George’s, it should do so by getting more cruise traffic there and by getting development going at the Club Med site. The town needs a lift, not a handout.
