There is no capital gains tax in Sinkieland. What tax is there to dodge? Anyway, I highly recommend this book that sheds light on the intrinsic selfishness of man:

all the book establishes is that Man will be selfish when his needs are not met. he is no better than an animal. not much of a revelation there.

its the advancement and evolution of Man that allows us to transcend our basal instincts. including giving a shit about the externalities that happens to others.

what is a revelation though, is that after having met her basic needs, assholes still continue to act like animals.

Watch for it: debate on capital gains tax to fund welfare programs in GE 2016. Implementation of capital gains tax just before GE 2021 to fund welfare programs, in response to loss of more GRCs @ GE 2016.

They ought to understand this, Large corporations are in China because of cheap labor, No workers/human rights and cheap commodities. Manufacturing moves around the globe looking for cheap labor.(Exploitation) Same case as Singapore, They moved cos we are getting expensive(Those who are still sitting here, is because the manufacturing labor cost has been stagnant and the location of this island makes it easy to move the products to the rest of the world) Large corporations move around, They dont sit at one place..Once a country has developed to a certain level they will move. So this chinaman better know that they are seen as peasants that can work in harsh environment without any Worker's right with low wages. China boom is because of export, This is dangerous cos if another 3rd world country starts producing goods cheaper and when Manufacturing firms start to move out cos of cost, Then china Economy will be in the shit.

Remembered when Singapore was in the shit, Who came and brought the Island population out of poverty? It was the MNCs, They help us come out from poverty and allowed us to have money to build this country, Our location also did help alot.

No ot strike, too much ot also strike! Wtf

Dear Frens,

thanks for the comments and I notice that the World Economy in general for the workers and middle class is becoming bad to worse. China has did a great job lowering poverty but now with inflation etc, poverty levels are increasing again.

Poverty is increasing and the middle class is shrinking and its all thanks to the big corporations. Lets use the USA as an example.

USA once have the largest middle class but now shrinking due to loss of jobs etc. The taxation system in the US rewards big corporations from investing overseas in the form of tax deductions. and these corporations gets benefits from the country they are investing in too. So that is why the USA is loosing jobs, middle class is shrinking. That is why till now USA still has not recovered from the recession and unemployment is still high...

to tackle the unemployment, USA needs to remove the tax loopholes and force the industries back into USA to create employment. With employment increasing the US consumers will be back and economic growth will set in.

However such a loop hole cant be closed as these companies will have less profits. Republicans and big business wants this to continue. Democrats have their fingers in the pie too...the USA cant solve its problems,,,but with the 1% controlling everything its just getting harder and harder.

The USA till now is still the largest consumer..they can be more inward looking but free trade is now BS.

Sorry if I have strayed but I am just ranting about the economy in general
