UPI Editor at Large Arnaud de Borchgrave's interview with Singapore's Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew in Singapore Feb. 2, 2008

Arnaud de Borchgrave : So how do you see the future of capitalism?

Lee Kuan Yew : As chairman of the equivalent of our Sovereign Wealth Fund, we examine and decide where to invest our money, in equities or bonds or what have you. Our fund managers are paid five times what I get. Why? Because they have had good track records in growing our fund and we know what they could command in the private sector. They are dealing with billions of dollars every day and must be compensated accordingly.

Unbridled capitalism, winner takes all like in America, does not work unless you can cope with an underclass. So here we also stay with the losers, make sure they have enough to live on, with healthcare, equal education opportunities for their children whose parents can no longer afford it. It's very important they not feel abandoned. So we have workfare and ingenuous ways to keep them working as we don't want layabouts doing nothing. We also subsidize homes which they would not be able to buy. A society can only survive if there is a sense of equity and fair play.

Do we want a leader like him to continue to lead the nation?

Civilgoh SG

We have top losers always thinking of ways and means to earn more and more money out of the people whom many are already coping to make ends meet. The top losers are drawing million and million dollar for their salary from the people who feed them whom they consider losers.

We hope that you'll join him on that day too. Why stop at getting rid of one shameless git when you can get rid of more?

sexyfats SG

what i think he means is in capitalism. there is 100% will have a winner, and a loser. for someone to succeed, someone has to fall. he is not insulting the underclass as failures, rather referring to them as the collateral damage of someone rich from capitalism.

or he could just be going senile and be insulting poor people in an international interview. do you really think he's that dumb?
