"I have a relative that can't bring herself to say anything negative about Basdeo Panday, as if he was better than sliced bread. "
I know what you mean, the corruption and hatred on both sides is disgusting - the only difference I see is that under the previous government they paid two or three times as much for improvements becuase of the corruption, now they only pay one time, but they don't get the improvements at all.

"..but there won't be another PM like Eric Williams"
True, Kitcheners "Captain, the ship is sinking" is one of my favorites... and there won't be another like him soon either...

You are probably right. It's very unfortunate. It's too bad. If the situation doesn't change, it'd be very easy for a 'Haiti-like' situation to develop esp. with Abu Bakr's lackeys running around.
