I think it’s much for fun to observe an apparent confused and split personality. As several already pointed out, your posts are rather inconsistent with your claim to be a liberal. In fact, to some extent, your views in many ways tough for a police state in which government intrudes into personal lives in many respects and a police state that eliminates hardworking wealthy/upper income folks. You know, there’s a form of government that fits that model :)[/quote]
I hear that Venezuela is looking for US expats…Brian would fit right in there.[/quote]
Singapore is more like it. You cannot buy chewing gum there. It’s clean, safe and rich.
The state provides everything, including housing, and demands a lot in return.
If military age men stay fit, they get paid money. If they get overweight, they get penalized and are required to lose the weight through boot camp type training.
There are plenty of filthy rich people in Singapore. It’s a low-tax banking center so the concentration of rich folks in Singapore is some of highest in the world.[/quote]
All of which begs the question: if this is the kind of society that you want to live in why don’t you move there?
I don’t want to live in Singapore or any place that resembles Singapore. That’s why I live here. And I don’t really want to turn the US into Singapore–although I’ll admit some of you could use a good caning…
