Ok...so how democratic is our country?? YEA...the republic of singapore ....is just nothing but a name....a fake name to diguise the ugly fact that we're ruled by a bunch of guys who passed the laws as they please...no i'm not complaining that to be living in a country like that sucks, but the recent increase of cigarettes' price just pissed mi off totally, I mean....if they can raise taxes on anything and anytime, What the fuck are we a republic?!?what happened to democracy?! If laws and taxes are raised without the citizens' consent, this is pure monarchy, or anarchy. WHateVER! No doubt, the singaporean government has some what done a pretty good job, in supressing the singaporeans, that resorted mi complaining on my blog....if not what? Start a protest? And indirectly caused the whole extended family line problems? this is where they are smart, obviously they know who are your extended family members. Cos the need to make us obedient...Ya ya...smoking is harmful for health, they are hiking the prices up to discourage the younger generation to start smoking and things like that...I can quit now cos i'm still young, how about those senior citizens? whom have retired? Those whom have been smoking like fifty years ago?! Where are they goin to find the money to support their deadly habit? Asking them to quit, i suggest a better way. Putting them to eternal sleep. Ya, i'm selfish for bringing them into the picture, cos i'm pissed with them that's why i brought the affected ones in as well. fuck it, for i give no dam. ARen't we are victims of the system enough? I don't even bother finding out the political or econmical loopholes. I use my brain to think. The only fact that we are all given education, regardless of family financial situation is just a plot. To make us all come out and contribute to the society, whereby it will generate more money, so they can earn more as ministers or Members of The parliment. So who the hell came up with GST? haven't they have enough taxes to tied the whole country up? Your folks have a flat to support, so when u start working, it's your turn to support. So what even if your folks managed to clear the flat's loan? don't tell mi neither you or sibling not moving out? what would that led u up to?another mountain of debts to pay...for at least twenty plus years. I used to have the mentality that those who gave up their singaporean citizenship is stupid cos why bother goin to another country to ply your trade and be treated as a second class citizen?? now i'm havin other thoughts about it. but too bad, even if i work for another ten thousand decades, i won't be able to afford to migrate. fuck
