撒钱解决不了 收入错配。 贫富不均的下一阶段， 如何强大家园？

 撒钱解决不了

收入错配。

贫富不均的下一阶段，

如何强大家园？


下一阶段的发展，如何在收入错配，贫富不均的背景下，强大家园？继续增加消费税以及其他的税率，同时，又要保持大公司大企业大富豪的税务优惠，事实上，就等于继续扩大错配和不均。


当然，这不是新加坡的问题。先进发达国家已经面临这个问题很久了，而且，看不到解决方法。举债，货币宽松，补贴，撒钱救济，等等已经成为进行式，重覆使用，就像在止痛药，越来越不见效。这显然已经成了一种选举工具。


新加坡人均收入已经是世界的领头羊。这显示贫富不均，财富分配失衡出现严重问题。纾解生活费上涨压力，只能一时、短暂的解决方法，不是长期协助中下层国人的药方。收入错配不解决，救济津贴就不可能消失。这其实是一个中产阶级减少的挑战，贫富不均，两极分化越来越严重的象征。


说真的，你看到共同前进了吗？你会继续支持收入错配，贫富不均，救济金年年发放的政策吗？错配与不均带来社会不安，不平，不公，将是一个很难解决的问题。即使新加坡法律很严，铤而走险，犯法，贪污，违规的事，增加的可能性大大提高。政府只能把这些归咎于中下层的问题，中下层的挑战，利用撒钱、有钱能使鬼推磨来解决?

Sub-standard PAP and the Singapore education system

I make a 'policy shift' when I hear the debate of right politics, constructive politics and sub-standard opposition. My original aim is to discuss about “Su Dongbo, Zhang Juzheng and Singapore education system”. The discussion will end with a sub-standard PAP, in particular from the assessment of the quality of PAP potential candidates. Another policy shift is to discuss it like a play, a drama and make it more entertainment rather than a sub-standard political discussion. Act 1 Gangster’s demand Imagine a sense in the Hong Kong's gangster movie (or a godfather movie), the gangsters' master is shouting at his poor opponent and demand him to give a price for his wrong act. The poor guy without any resources can only offer his body or his service to work for the master. Back in his own chamber, the master is still not satisfied and continues to shout 'don't play, play, you think you are hero, you think you are tiger, or superstar or acting ...

EBRC objectives: Stop “Out of Aljunied”, Stop SDP Breakthrough and “Negative-Asset” Ministers.

First of all, we have to congratulate the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee for creating more competitions, especially, multi-cornered competitions in the East. When making changes, EBRC aims to achieve 3 goals: To prevent “Out of Aljunied” for Workers’ Party.  This is the most important objective. To prevent Singapore Democratic Party making any breakthrough in the North and Central.   To look for a solution to retire “negative-asset” ministers or reduce PAP damages. From the reported claims from different political parties, we will expect multi-cornered contests not only in single constituencies but also in group representative constituencies. The PAP hopes to have a repeat of 2011 Presidential Election. Then Tony Tan won the Presidency when he got only 35% of the votes, a narrow win.However, a win is still a win. He did in even in the very last minute, after recounts of votes.    How to achieve multi-cornered contests? By i...

Is Prism Project Another Central Planning of the PAP?

There are 3 scenarios under the Prism Project#1 of Institute of Public Policy.  However, it looks more like the central scenario planning of the People’s Action Party. From the instructional menu of Prism Project Primer #2, participants were guided to a situation in 2022 and they have to imagine, within the Primer framework, to come out with 3 possible scenarios in Jun-Aug 2012.  2022. What a coincidence! Not long ago, PM Lee declared that he would like to hold the prime minister post for another 10 years. The other coincidence is the similarity between the 3 scenarios and the candidates of PE2011. How competitive and sustainable are the 3 scenarios to the people of Singapore and to the PAP?   Will the scenarios produce competitive and sustainable Singapore, Singaporeans or the PAP?  Perhaps, as what the Chinese say: planning cannot always catch up with changes.   And planning sometimes turns out the wrong, bad and unexpected results, espec...
