Chitchat Sinkie Old Farts Need At Least $1,379 A Month To Survive In Singapore! CPF Helping Sinkies To Enjoy Retirement!

[Hypocrite-The]

I feel as long as a citizen has paid tax for 25 to 30 straight years no reason why the govt cannot provide a simple pension of 1k to 2k sustenance a month starting from 60 plus free healthcare...and also for those who are still working pass 60 yo there should be no income tax impose

Most singkies pay very little direct taxes..and heaps of foreigners enjoy working in singkieland because of the low tax regime. So since singkies pay fee direct taxes...a pension by the pap is not possible

KNN tkl say elderly only need $800 KNN he meant 800 euros is it KNN

A tax is a tax. It does not matter whether it is direct or indirect - it is still a tax.

With the current Cat A COE at $27,000 and Cat B COE at $42,564 - do you consider COE a kind of tax?

So pap will never give pension regardless if the tax is exceedingly high or not. Is that correct?

If so, then your statement trying to relate the low direct taxes to no pension is wrong.

Put simply, pap simply squeeze from us and gives us virtually nothing in return.

70 % voted for it. N pension for everyone is unsustainable unless direct taxes increase , gst goes up to 20% or more. and of course welfare payments to the pappies need to be increased. The pappies will not bite the hands that feed them.

PAP earns 7 pct on returns from CPF deposits, pays 2.5 pct interest. 4.5 pct go where?
PAP also earns from the exhorbitant price of 'subsidized' flats.

If sinkees can invest their CPF on SPY, they will have no problem with retirement finances.

It is simple maths...with the current population size and per capita income, how is a gahmen funded pension system not sustainable in Singapore?

Even if they can they won't "throw money" like that. To the gahmen, it's just a waste of their resources. All they do is hand out one-time perks like the pioneer gen and merdeka gen packages when it's that time of the year...

In addition to that "one-time perks like the pioneer gen and merdeka gen packages when it's that time of the year...", they shamelessly pay themselves obscene millions of dollars year after year.
