Quote of the Day II

DateTuesday, May 4, 2010 at 11:09PM

Lucky Tan continues swinging at the homelessness issue:

[Homelessness] is not a problem the govt cannot fix. The govt has more than enough resources to do this but is limited by ideological belief that 'welfare is a dirty word' and 'subsidies are bad'.....but these subsidies are neccessitated by the huge income gap which is a function of economic policies adopted by the PAP.

His entire post is worth reading.

    Source: Minister Balakrishnan scolds Al Jazeera and bloggers ...Part 2

    It is almost always true that when people reach the point that they need to seek govt help, you can examine their lives and find that they could have done much better for themselves. This, I feel, is irrelevant because if everyone manages their life and finances well, nobody will need to go to Minister Balakrishnan's MCYS for help and he can just shut it down.
