Nine years ago, Jamaica was on the brink. Our debt was 130% of everything we produced in a year. That meant if we took every coconut, every yam, every pig raised by our young farmers, every dollar earned by our businesses, and used all of it to pay off our debt, we would still owe 30% more. That is the Jamaica we inherited. But today, if we took everything we produce in one year, we could pay off the entire debt and still have 32% left.
