They will definitely get severance payments as part of their union contract.  The question is what do they do after that. Its not as if those payments will take care of their needs beyond a certain short period.

Druggie I know that you want the oligarchs to turn those lands into gated communities having acquired the lands at bottom prices.  This is what Jagdeo/Ramotar did on the East Bank Demerara.

I just don't want govt to embark on another pipe dream, giving out land like Burnham only to be burnt. Gated communities may not be a bad idea if it is more profitable than farming. Remember these folks don't have the necessary equipment/knowledge to be efficient farmers. It is like throwing a hail Mary in football, hoping that cane cutters suddenly become efficient farmers. Not because they are Indians mean that they will be successful. This is reverse discrimination.
