Saving Poor people in Singapore
-
As I grow older, i discovered singapore still have many poor people. Sometimes i feel this world is unfair, some pple r struggling with their daily basic needs like food while others r driving big and luxurious cars and living in big houses. really pity the poor pple in singapore. i think more should be done to help the poor. one way is to deduct more money from those rich pple's salary and then distribute these money equally among the poor. like that will definitely save many poor pple and make everyone's wealth more equally distributed.

according to your dat "one way", is by deducting money equally from all rich pple's salary, we may have caused difficulty to those essential rich pple who is in real needs of supporting their family (perhaps a disabled father, a paralysed mother, 2 mentally challenged children, a low-educated wife)
so how? no way to check man, unless a new system is put in place to countercheck those excess rich Vs essential rich

we shall see the poor burn!
anyway. rich already paying more taxes, so no point deducting salary.

rich will become richer

Bangulzai, maybe u r right. i should have defined the difference between excess rich and essential rich. I referring to those excessively rich pple. these r the pple who ought to share their money with the poor. one day, the poor will overthrow the rich!!! and this society will be equal. this will be an ideal society. Equal wealth for everyone!!!

no such thing..as far as what i see. every morning see poor old man selling tissues. and poor old woman climbing overhead bridge (maybe to go work). nobody buys from old man.
got rich people donate money, but poor ppl are usually uneducated esp the old ones, they prob duno where to go for financial help, so money wouldnt reach these ppl.
in the ideal world everything is shared more fairly, but to be realistic we cannot expect that.
even my buying tissues from old man doesnt help him cos i see him everyday.

spilting the wealth of the rich would be too much like communism

TS, how nice if the ruling party has the compassion like you for the poor.

It won't happen without a massive change in the way the majority thinks. Meaning it won't happen anytime in the near future.

Ya. If like that, everybody in singapore will want to be poor so taht they can receive money.
And the rich people in singapore also got donate their money to charity and help the poor mah.
And the pap government won't allow such a thing to happen because their ministers are damn rich. They won't allow the poor people to take their money

Instead of starting a thread to generate ways to "deal" with the rich, why not think of ways to "make friends" or "pull strings" or "make connections" with them? :lol:

why not start a thread on how to seduce rich womans so that you can eat soft rice? -
Rich people damn poor thing lor.
Poor people like to punish the rich for being rich.
Is it really rich people's fault for the poor people's plight ?
If we punish the rich.. then why bother becoming rich ?
We might as well.. just all sit at home .. be poor and wait for the rich to give us their money.

Something like they only help the weak/poor, and loathe the rich/strong. This kind of shallow old-generation mentality is actually a kind of mental sickness that needs to be cured.

I will give the Gospel of John and a 20 dollars note to a poor old man who collect cans.

Whenever I am in a restaurant, I will put a tract on the table for the next customer to read.

The rich, after paying more taxes, will not become poor wor...
Will still be rich wor...

any way. without being rich. how can you help people?
if being rich is a crime. then work so much for what?
the poor is finding exquses all the time.
there is lots of $$ money making ways
but everytime they won't do it because of their lack of confidence and mentaility that they are sure to fail and even why bother starting doing it.
A wise man will always find for a way, well a foolish man always find exquses.

that is as good as wot robin hood is doing..
it is unethical even though the motive is morally right...
the people who should be saving the poor are the despots...
equality is alr given...equal amount of taxes etc...
most times, being poor is a choice...
wot i hate are poor people who dunno how to live up to their income standards and buy expensive things to live "comfortably" and then complain no money...

This is a lame theory, the end result is there is going to be more poor people. Why work when the rich will distribute their wealth to you. I for one will quit my job and stay at home to be poor, got a stupid rich guy is going to feed me why waste my effort and time to work.
