Does the lack of national flags at HDB estates serve as a litmus test of the PAP government’s performance?

[zhihau]

I am amazed, dumbfounded and awestruck at the Pap's ability to maintain such a large share of the popular vote despite hoarding 75% of the wealth of the nation in the hands of the top 20%.

you know it's like rokok, it's one for the road

Fuck the PAP!

The IQ/EQ of Singapore's inhabitants is a bell curve just like it is in any other country. People rise to whatever level they deserve.

The top tier make the most money while the bottom of the heap make the least. There is absolutely nothing unusual about Singapore's wealth distribution whatsoever.

If everyone was equal or close to equal it would mean something seriously wrong with the system.

Yes wealth distribution is uneven in societies in most if not all countries. But at least those living in public housing in other countries own their homes in perpetuity if they want to. They can keep their cars forever if they choose to,without being penalised with higher charges. Their less well-off and middle class can actually own assets.

The stats don't form a bell curve. It cannot be described as a normal distribution.

More Pareto distribution, 80-20 rule.

In reality, sinkieland can't be said to be normal at all. It is a totally artificial, government-created society where everything exist in a bubble. Reminds me of the movie "The Truman Show". To lead a small country with big ambition, we need extraordinary leaders with creative solutions. Not this present day bunch of mediocre monkeys demanding and commanding extraordinary wages.

Yes it's an amonaly and we should revert to the mean over time unless we have the right social conditions to nurture the next extraordinary leader.

Or maybe the next great leader will hail from overseas beyond these shores.

Unless daft sinkies can wean themselves off the pap kool-aid and see a candidate for his/her qualities rather than the party he/she is from, the greatest leader on earth would never lead the country.

Is that the new Singapore flag? The crescent is invalid because the country is no longer 'a young nation'? It's more than half a century old. Is it right for a government to disregard the country's earlier years? To most Singaporeans, the 5 STARS are slowing fading away? The ruLEEng LEEders should be for Singaporeans and not just for the LEEders onLEE.

Food for Thought:
Is this your country, my country or OUR country?
MY country is what I see every day, and NOT the picture you have painted.
