Let the despots do something honorable for once
and lower the cost of doing business in Singapore so that
the businesses can survive with less business instead of surviving
only with Singaporeans spending in a downturn.
Since they will never be
honorable, then Singaporeans have to take matters onto their own
hands and stop spending.
The despots should make hiring
a foreigner more expensive than hiring a local so that business
owners do not go around hiring foreigners even in a
downturn.
As long as the despots continue
to be dishonorable, acting as government for foreigners, taking as
much money from the people as possible by raising prices and losing
it gambling on foreign stocks and shares, don't ask Singaporeans to
be fools and continue to spend.
As long as the despots are dishonorable,
Singaporeans must wake up and stop spending. Dishonorable despots
cannot be trusted.
Freaking thick-skulled fool.
Hoarding money is the greatest disservice one can do to
Singapore.
Shut your freakin' claims about punishing the despots.
If everyone hoards money, say bye bye to your job/business
etc.
Don't you have basic economics knowledge?
Don't give me the
schooled-by-Singapore-styled-education-economics-propaganda
bullcrap.
It's bad enough such a high amount of our economy's money gets
leaked into CPFs and other taxes. Now you want people to stop
spending. Nice one lar.
Reduce consumption to punish the despots? Fat hope.
You will only be punishing the exact SMEs and normal
blue-collared workers whom you claim to liberate from the despots
by depriving them of an economy.
Besides, they have the money to weather our the crisis (c.f.
wages). Do most of the Singaporeans' have that deep buffer?
Another classical oppose-for-the-sake-of-opposing argument.
Go back to school, boy.
