Trevor Crichlow, 40 I think it’s a bunch of nonsense. Wages ain’t rising but everything else rising. That’s a headache.

Given the amount of money being generated in raising utilities, where is my money going? There are prominent businesses which owe the Barbados Water Authority thousands of dollars but they aren’t getting run down and now bus fares rising?

Government needs to stop tricking the people, taking away from area and putting back on the next and the only ones feeling it is the poor people. Who catching four buses a day to get to work dead; corned beef and sardines now goin’ sell.

I know things are hard but here is actually cheap compared to some places where you pay more if you are going farther. Plus schoolchildren are free. Bajans have it good.

You see how Barbados is already; them politicians will be playing a big role in the rise in crime.

I don’t support that. There are a lot of people not working, so how can you raise bus fares?
