    *If after one reads this and still not thinking twice before selling their land and assets for $$$ and not moving forward to get their gardens growing and going, and/or try their utmost to become self sufficient and try to support the smaller enterprises more, well one will just remain with their eyes wide shut and be like lambs to the slaughter!*

    We will see if this venture bears out and which Master Tuners/Blenders align themselves with this new entry.

    Begs the question, does T&T have any "anti-trust" legislation, and which of the many political parties have policies that promote and support that quest?

    • ... so why TRINIS get vex when they say that they are the 1% but control the other 99%?

      IGNORANCE?

      And dey putting ah BLACK FACE in front to MAMAGUY STUPID TRINIS!!!
