Description

Part 1 - Host Neville James is joined by guests Lolo Willis and Arthur Salomon as they reflect on Virgin Islands fiscal history, including rum industry revenues, the 2008 Diageo deal, and long-standing challenges with tax refunds and government debt. The conversation also revisits past labor actions, particularly the 2000 teachers’ strike, and highlights how political decisions, economic dependence, and lack of diversification have shaped current financial struggles. Throughout, Willis and Salomon stress the need for stronger leadership, better-qualified decision-makers, and collaborative strategies to expand the tax base and build a more resilient economy for the Virgin Islands.
