But on the flip side... Aren't the critics already talking? Is there anything wrong about anyone defending what they themself see right? How do you measure a minister's responsibility and worth versus a top management position in the private sector? Remember, it's easy to criticise. But to step into the shoes of others and go into every single little detail of how they arrive at some conclusions... is often not at all easy. Do you ever had well intentions misunderstood?

I think I hv committed blasphemy here, to ridicule our hope, our path to an eternally materially well off life, a paradise. Heck, I shd not be fearful of death at all, I am in heaven.

LKY started off running a country but ended up running an exclusive business. I think his audience should point this out to him. LKY's political logic is skewed and so is his idea of meritocracy. I agree with Aaron that the politicians need to experience what the ordinary folks go through daily to truly understand things in perspective. The PM himself will never understand what it is like living in a HDB flat, taking public transport, worrying about job security, raising a family on a tight budget, eating out in hawker outlets,etc,etc. Just look at where he came from, his real experiences and you will know what I mean. It is up to the people to give these politicians the much needed experience. Give them as little votes in the next elections, they will have to work their butts off to win back those precious votes. This is the only logic that they understand. Nobody is born with experience, you need time and exposure to accumulate experience.
