The web shop question is deceptively asked. As it is currently worded, the question seeks to gerrymander a yes vote.

The web shop question is: "Do you support the regulation and taxation of web shop gaming?" The deceptive word in the question is the word "regulation," because it deceptively indicates that web shops are legal!

A "no" vote would be saying to let the web shops continue as they are operating without regulation! The PM and the web shop bosses have already been successful in deceptively indicating that web shops are legal by only seeking a yes or no vote for possible regulation!

Therefore, here is the proper question that an honest government would ask:

"Do you support the legalization and taxation of web shop gaming?"

But, we don't have an honest government? This question was written by the web shop owners as part of their payback for campaign donations. I pray that Bahamians will resoundingly vote no to both questions, but especially the web shop question.
