Please lah, Pioneer Generation Package (PGP) is not charity

[Confuseous]

The ST editorial today also wrote about the suggestion by some to mean test the seniors before giving them the PGP. The basis is that the rich should get less and the poorer seniors should get more, just like handouts in a charity. Come, show me how poor and pathetic you are and beg for a little mercy.

Please, the PGP is not just to acknowledge the contributions of the seniors but to pay back what they had lost for their contributions in the early years to build this nation to what it is today, to pay the young punks millions to live an extremely good life. Your good life is built on the backs of the pioneers, on their blood, sweat and tears. They planted the trees to give you shade and fruits and a lift to prosperity and for foreigners to come here and get paid by the millions and claiming credit for it, that they are so talented and so deserving, that they built the institutions that are paying them millions.

Do not treat the pioneers as beggars like you are doing them a big favour, throwing some crumbs to those who are hungry and needed financial help. You created this financial burden for them by allowing medical cost to escalate to this point when it is better to die than to be sick.

You are just a bunch of ingrates to ever think of mean testing the seniors. See my middle finger?

Is the package specially tailored for the past golden gunners ?:o

U are absolutely right, the pioneer generation of Singaporeans should be given the proper reward for choosing the right government to run the country and make it one of the greatest in the world. The current generation of loser opposition supporting retards should be made to pay extra for trying to ruin the country.

what fuck pioneer generation package ?

more like a generation of sillypooreans being slashed
and drained of their blood yearly and after decades of
doing it they now decided to give those sillypooreans
a plaster to cover the wound.

for decades they were enjoying a very good life and
accumulated millions and billions while the majority suffered.

Look closer. Pioneer Generation are now in CLEARANCE SALE category. Just check the obituary columns of the local dailies and you can see many are being cleared daily. So in a few years how many would be left? So how much would the Government spend on them? But the cosmetic effect is that oldsters are looked after well. Anyway something is better than nothing.
