But their students are heavily subsidized, they dont complain.
But in SG, its not.
do you know anything about what goes on outside of SG? Do you?
have you studied overseas? have you spent a day beyond 2 weeks out
of SG?
In the US, US citizens pay US$150,000 (S$240,000) for their 4
year college fees in public universities. In SG, farmer students in
its farmer universities (NUS, NTU) pay S$5,500+ per year. That's
only a measly S$20,000 for four years. 2 in 3 farmer students do a
three year course, so that's about a pathetic S$15,000 in total for
the farmer degree and it costs less than 7% of what a US citizen
pays for public college education, not to mention the costs of
going to private college like Chicago, Northwestern or Ivy League.
Do some fucking research first before talking shit, dumb
farmer.
When dumb farmer fucks like you punch above your weight on the
internet like this, it always makes Singaporeans who knows whats
going on outside Singapore laugh hysterically. In SG, more than 8
out of 10 citizens do not pay income tax. The few who do pay so
little income tax its a joke. Even someone who earns $120K a year
like my 25 year old friend, his income tax is only $6K, which means
its only 5% of his annual income and he belongs to the top 10% of
earning bracket here. Income tax is capped at 10% of total income
here, no matter how much the person earns.
In the US, more than 90% of its citizens pay income tax and more
than half pay more than 50% income tax. Which means when a US
citizen makes $500,000 a year, at least $250,000 of his income goes
to the state. In UK and other EU countries, and especially the
Scandinavian countries, income tax is between 60% to 80% of annual
income. In London, a one-way ride on the tube costs easily 3
pounds.
SG's super cheap tax, with 8 in 10 citizens not actually paying
any income tax, and its super cheap farmer uni education, coupled
with super cheap pri/sec and JC school fees (less than $10 a
month!), you should be counting your lucky stars that you were born
here because the govt takes care of shit like you as well.
Because scum and garbage like you won't survive a day in the
US.
