In a subsequent letter to Byron, Goss replied that Pier 66 was picked only aftercareful inspection by him and other members of his staff who “physically toured eight hotel prop­ erties in the Ft. Lauderdale area.” In his letter, Goss agreed that Pier 66 has “beautifully landscaped Founds, a nice swimming pool and a marina where some expensive yachts are docked.” Nevertheless, he took umbrage with our sugges­ tion that the IRS employees were more interested in the amenities than the seminars. “The hotel does not set on the beach (it is approximately one-half to three-quarters of a mile from the beach), and it is not located any­ where near a golf course,” Goss argued. Goss defended this year’s trip by telling us that lawyers from his re­ gion are not alone.

The US should not allow exploited labor products to carry a label indicat­ ing USA origination, particularly since a decent minimum wage is not paid in the CNMI. It is also clear that the CNMI is unwilling to collect reasonable taxes from its citizens to pay roads, utilities, schools, and government facilities. Why should US citi­ zens be expected to subsidize such services when CNMI citizens are not required to contribute a rea­ sonable percentage of income for their own support. It is time for the US subsidy to stop. In the past, land was reserved by the US government in Tinian for possible use in the future as a military base.

I’m very confused as to why Mr. Del Rosario is doing this to the Republican Party when, in fact, after many years he has been fed with a lot of golden opportunities of living a luxury life because of the skyrocketting salaries that he has been accorded by the Party for almost the past 12 years that the Republican Party has been in power here in the CNMI.
