We still have 95% who are employed." - Yeo Cheow Tong "People support CPF cuts because there are no protest outside parliament." - PM Lee "GST hike is to help the poor." - PM Lee AND last but not least, here's what MM Lee said in April 2007:- ........you have to pay the market rate or the man will up stakes and join Morgan Stanley, Lehman Brothers or Goldman Sachs and you would have an incompetent man and you would lost money by the BILLIONS.....!!!!!!

Sleepyman Clutched February 2, 2009 Share February 2, 2009 This is the bestest! S'pore cannot afford "revolving door" style of govt: MM Lee By Asha Popatlal, Channel NewsAsia | Posted: 04 April 2007 1918 hrs SYDNEY: Singapore cannot afford to have a "revolving door" style of government where top leaders change every five years. "So for the average family earning S$1,500-S$3,000, we are talking of astronomical figures but for people like me in government, to deal with the money which we have accumulated by the sweat of our brow over the last 40 years, you have to pay the market rate or the man will up stakes and join Morgan Stanley, Lehman Brothers or Goldman Sachs and you would have an incompetent man and you would have lost money by the billions," said Mr Lee.

What about his comment of increasing GST by another 1.5% to get free public transport? I hardly use public transport since I drive, but hey I am willing to pay that extra 1.5% just to make him ensure that we get free transport. I wonder if SMRT or SBS flipped when he said that.

I'd rather not. GST is just a way of taxing the richer people to pay for the poor. If people want transport, they should have to work for it instead of having everything given to them on a silver platter and at the expense of other more intelligent and hardworking people.
