*Yawn* More sidestepping. Okay, for a little more than
amusement, let's filter out the flaccid chest-thumping from your
most recent post and see what we're left with, shall we?
I would have simply ignore you and
let your opinions be judged by others more discerning, and may they
overlook your more egoistical comments and not judge harshly. But
for the sake of clarity and to correct the blindness, overboard
conceit, you had overlooked in my initial response to you, i feel
the necessity to reply, to help others understand more of what you
are attempting to do and say.
You are presumptous to assume that
you know it all and determined the nature of the problem.
Unfortunately, it is
something which even a village idiot can mouth today based on
hindsight.
You foolishly claimed a time frame
for progression and evolution of society, but upon what foundations
or political/socia economic theory are you basing on?
Or was just something that flew
to your mind, and in your loneliness and rejection by your
own adopted countrymen, you foreigner rant and take it out on us
citizens?
Even more critically, after boastfully claiming credit for voicing
out the 'nature' of our problem as perceived by you, had you
come out with anything else constructive for the progress of our
nation?
None, all i see are your continued
egoistical rants, flagrant name droppings to boost your inferiority
complex, and typical vulgarity resorting to ridicule when you are
intellectually challenged by others.
In case you miss this vital point, i
will repeat in bold ( not in anger ) so that you will not miss it
- WHAT IS YOUR SOLUTION THEN TO OUR CRISIS IN YOUR VAINGLORIOUS NARCISSISTIC
VIEW?
Foreigner, continue to live in your
deluded hubris, for other fellow citizens are not as foolish as you
presumed or want them to be. We prefer solutions, not
condemnations, for we ourselves are fully capable of making them
without your help.

You're a classic example of what ails the country, because the
only thing you know is to respond to everything with, "No, it's
not" - you're just like Monty Python's Argument Sketch.
What's my solution? Simple. Singapore needs to get
rid of people like you who waste precious air questioning
irrelevancies instead of examining issues, and who have the
tragically frail, itsy-bitsy little egos that compel them to use
opposition of any ideas as a smokescreen to cover up the fact
that they're too frightened to come up with any ideas of their
own.
Get this into your head: either lead, follow or get out of the
way because, frankly, your bleating about being betrayed is not
only an obstruction to anything resembling reason, it's pretty
fucking boring as well.
Think I'm wrong? Show me where you've proposed anything here
to deal with the crisis. Go on - I dare you. I say you
haven't, and I say you can't because you're just too scared to
think for yourself instead of chanting the slogans, exhortations
and general bullshit that the government has pumped through your
ears. You've gone so faroff the deep end that now you're
taking a decision made in 1992, with the current circumstances to
show the tinmeframe in which the decision was made, and tried
presenting the ludicrous claim that it was hindsight. I got a
chuckle out of that one, I'll give you that much. 
Oh, by the way, talking about your initial response, you
wrote:
let us all crack our brains on how we can collectively improve
our economy, what will work for us as a society, thru discussion
and not finger pointing or ridiculing each other.
Hmm. In light of your latest post, I'd call you a
hypocrite in court. 
You've lost all control, perspective and logic, and while all
I've done is present my opinions and experience, you seem to have
fired up all of your little insecurities and worked up a lathering
rabid one-man crusade here.
Keep trucking right along, tiger -remember, you're the one
whining about having to clean up this mess that your government
created because it's you that's going to go down with the
ship. I've already made my decision and my profits out of
that decision, so you're right in the sense that it's academic for
me. Does it make a difference to me if you succeed or if you
drown while helplessly flailing about in a rabid frenzy?
Nope, but the rabies is somewhat more amusing.
The damndest this is that, for all on his shenanigans, Minigun
is actually providing more intelligent conversation than your
spittle-filled rants. Who'd have thunk it? 
Look, I'll be straight with you, you're boring me. If you
do want conversation, pick apart what I've said about Singapore
pricing itself out of the manufacturing sector, or what I've said
about the government needing to give people more free rein.
You asked for the solutions, but you're too blind to see that I've
already addressed that - or are you simply too scared of the
truth?
Either way, until you come back to the real issues, you're just
being a baby who's dropped his blankie in the mud, and frankly,
that kind of crybaby bullshit just bores the heck out of me.
So it's up to you - I've shown you what I've said, I've shown
you how you're being childish, I've shown you how your posts are
nothing but empty calories, and I've shown you what a hypocrite you
are. Now either grow up or stop wasting bandwidth.
Now, I've got a rather nice discourse about Riemann's Hypothesis
going on in another forum, so do pardon me if I have to leave you
to blow your nose and wipe your arse by yourself. I'll peruse
this thread for amusing tidbits that might pop up, but you'll
understand if I don't hold my breath waiting for a half-intelligent
utterance from you.
