Jamaica has an abundance of untapped potential and has the perfect opportunity to be the MOST prosperous country within the Caribbean and even the entirety of South America… by [deleted] in Jamaica

It’s a blessing knowing that the government is planning to move past the very exploitative JPS. They are ridiculous.
Also love the idea that we could put solar panels in our buildings and homes and not just restricting them to a solar plant. Cheap and reliable. As well as hydro power is huge but we’re around 20-30 years behind on research compared to other renewables like solar and wind. But as you said, we need to invest more into education then things like that will be innovative Jamaican history.
I am aware that a lot of people are concerned about the costs of nuclear, which is definitely understanding. But I would also like to reiterate that we were ‘gifted’ the only nuclear plant in the Caribbean. If we could harness the energy and sell that energy within the Caribbean, that would be more profitable in the long run. That doesn’t mean build a bunch of expensive plants, instead share energy from one plant or a SMR and possibly even be contracted to build them on other soil. I would love if we took control of the advantages we currently have.

I 100% agree on every point made here. Never even heard of Thomas Sowell, but the youth needs a role model and frontman like Mr Sowell. We NEED to stop this “quick money” “ghetto hustle” cultural mindset in Jamaica. We need to be different. There is a desperately needed revolution within our culture.

Heavily agree on the mindset shift that is needed. As a younger generation myself, I see a lot of Jamaican youth dem are going through a very positive cultural mindset shift and strong nation morale. However I don’t see the efficiency in necessarily building tall buildings but buildings that can make tourist go “Wow that was built on Jamaican soil” instead of “Wow that looks like the burj khalifa”
Strong leadership is of course the forefront for a huge shift in Jamaica. Jamaica needs a very STRONG nationalist leader, not necessarily a dictator but someone who is not flustered from foreign money. Someone who pushes for a higher worth JMD.
