Negril needs attention

[Tenn DD]

Yes, everyone who is making money, as in vending, is required to have a license...the government wants their cut.

Well dang. Can we submit a list of our fav vendors/higglers/hustlers/friends and get an exemption for them?

I don't intend to speak for others, but I love the vendors, look forward to seeing the regulars, love messing with the other characters up and down the beach. The ones that are good at their job make it fun. I've seen a little attitude, but not much. There is no welfare in Jamaica, and that has created a tremendous work ethic that should be admired. Some are really good at getting me to pull a little money out of my pocket. For me, it's all part of the Negril cool vibe experience, and is part of what keeps me coming back.

Another option? Take that list and have everyone contribute to a fund to buy them a license to make them legal going forward. No matter how long that list of "fav vendors/higglers/hustlers/friends" is now, it will grow astronomically fast until it will be twice the population in no time once it gets out someone is paying for it.

And.... it will also grow astronomically fast for exemptions until no one will have to pay for a license. Dang.
