"Why does McDonalds and other firms offer people like this lady less than $5 an hour? Because they can - if she don't want to accept this 1990s rate, there's 2 or 3 FTs willing to)
Obviously all these is incomprehensible to you. And the Govt turns a blind eye because they can still collect levies and taxes from both the worker and firms. And they are unwilling to spend these monies on improving people's lives, instead they go and increase rates like train fares and utilities using global trends as the reason. When it suits them, they will quote things happening in the West and the rest of the world and saying Singapore must follow suit or we'll lose our way. But when it comes to giving more freedoms like free press, free speech and a fairer voting system, they turn around and say - Oh No, No way we can do these things that the West are doing - we must do things our own way and what we think right and not be swayed by events elsewhere.'
So next time a Caucasian tells you to be thankful and stop whining, please advise him to put his money where his mouth is, cut off all ties with his homeland and migrate here permanently and experience the wonderful we live here under the yoke of autocratic rule."
