Clearing air on irresponsible postings of a forum member

  I am starting a thread on the irresponsible postings by Mat Toro.
  
  For everyone's info, this guy just popped up recently making a lot of irresponsible comments.
  
  I will be grouping his postings here, to specifically discuss and debate against his remarks. This is important because we need to clear the air that not all Singaporeans behave like him, and to clear the air of any mis-information that he claimed he knows, which is detrimental to both PAP and the opposition.
  
  First Quote from GST Consolidated Thread
  
  

  
  Quoted from Mat Toro:
  Grew it from scratch and now turnover of about 10 milion. Definitely more exerience than you buddy.
  

  Mat Toro has claimed first and foremost he is a businessman with a $10million turnover company.
  
  we will come back to this later.

  1st debate on Mr Mat's opinion
  
  View #1: Pay of all Singaporeans are on the rise
  
  This was my reply to him
  "here's the link on wage stagnation:
  http://www.ips.org.sg/Media/yr2007/p2007/CNA_Middle%20class%20wage%20stagnation%20could%20lead%20to%20social%20instability_11%20Jan%2007.pdf"
  
  when he claimed he doesn't know anything about this.
  
  This was his response
  "Did they tell you that there is a growing middle class that snapped up all these condos out there?

  2006 Wage Increase Highest In 6 Years, Says MOM
  Average rise was 4.5%; most sectors paid more than 2 monthsÂ’ bonus.
  How much increment did you get my frens? Be honest."
  
  The above link in no way indicate that a growing middle class was snapping up condos.
  
  This is the 1ST time we noticed his 'ability' to make conclusions without any backup of facts
