  I agreed that if the parents can spent $5800 on their kid, they should be able to take care of themselves without handout.

  The concern is about real housing and healthcare needs for the nation.

  As for Mr T, expecting him to change is impossible as the rest of them are more concerned about their sacrifice on their monthly pay than allowing more money to be spent non-revenue generating task.

  What kind of boss breed what kind of dog.

  First World Minister but none perform First World service to the country and people. MONEY MONEY money and still money is all in their hearts, minds and souls. Like that how to serve the people. Singapore is a country not an organisation for profit making. Want more and more money go do business, DAMN PAP MINISTERS!

  SAFETY NET refers to their safety net lahh!!! Their safety net to ensure they are of no risk to endless money to themselves to continue to laugh themselves to the bank, freedom to slam oppositions and singaporeans ....... Most greedy and CMI ministers in the world are PAP ministers.

  Only some people have nets.

   

  The rest fall through the holes in the nets.

  actually, if we had world-class salaries, we won't mind paying world-class taxes coz it'll all even out and we'd be ahead...

  but i guess the only ones with "world-crass salaries" (see those idiots in Goldman-Sachs and other bank(upt)ers) are the mini-stars here...

  and i think they don't even pay tax
