Inneart,

If i can simplify your statements,
You are saying , the fittest survive. The rest drool.

Well, that being the case. Look at it this way.

Every nation has people in top , middle and bottom.

It goes without saying the top can be anywhere in the world. So the question is why should they stay here in Singapore?

Let me put to you one view without many words.

They stay here because they can be top without doing anything to help the bottom and anyone here for that matter. When things get bad here, just move on to the next nation without any consequences.

Other nations, they will get tax super high , or in some ways of helping the local economy, they will be asked to "give back".


As one FT once said in my face, your government give me free education, free lodging and even offer me citizenship so i can even travel easily to other nations. And because FT works in MNC, he dont even bother to serve their bond here other than paying taxes for 5 years. FT bought HDB flat, rent it out out to others within 1 year. He is blantly flouting rules of the HDB flat but he doesnt care because if he is caught, he just have to sell back the HDB at market price.

So tell me , how do you respond if such FT comes to your face and tells you this.
