Nothing to do with alternative views. The socialists got upset when they were threatened with loss of points.

Preaching about how one should help the poor and the needy is one thing. When providing that help affects their own well being directly, they'll suddenly start singing a different tune.

When points were deducted from some members for distribution to others, the term "unfair" suddenly shot to prominence.

I agree. It is unfair to take from one and give to someone else. Forum hosts shouldn't do it and neither should governments.

Leongsam,

The problem is that your approach and analogy are way off the mark.

Firstly, what forummers are suggesting is not an indiscriminate redistribution of wealth to the poor, but a fairer society. I think that much is abundantly clear. Singapore is not a fair society because our policies favour the rich and elites, and there is no safety net for those who fall between the cracks. We are not talking about Greek-style welfare here. We are talking about basic human dignity and the basic responsibility of the nation to look after its weakest members who cannot fend for themselves. What's the point of nation building if you can't even find the space within for human compassion and basic civility?

When you listed members whose points were to be deducted, they were not 500, 600 pointers like Scroobal, myself, kingrant, drifter, etc. They were low pointers like TracyTan, Nice-Gook. And you were talking about taking their already meager points and giving it to OverTheCounter, who had already over a couple hundred points to begin with. This totally contradicts the point that you were trying to make.

Secondly, you were not re-distributing points on a needs basis, or on the basis of rewarding genuine hard work, which is what forummers have been advocating all along -- that those who put in their due to society should get the rewards they deserve and not be stuck in the fucking lower income bracket just because the fucking PAP chooses to let in a fucking tsunami of foreigners to dilute their fucking wages.

You were re-distributing points to reward someone who already had a couple hundred rep pts for advancing your own point of view, to the exclusion of other points of view. That is not a demonstration of welfare, but a demonstration of fascism.

Given the incredible disconnect between the point you were attempting to make, and what you were actually doing, can you now see why the entire joke was lost on forummers, and the whole plot simply fell apart?

The reason why I chose those particular nicks to start off with is because they were instrumental in promoting the ideology of the welfare state over the last couple of weeks. The high pointers will get their turn in due course. I'll monitor their political leanings in order to decide the timing and the amount to be deducted. You are at liberty to add to their points so they suffer no net loss whatsoever.

I'm not rewarding anyone to advance my personal point of view. If there were enough pro govt campaigners here, I could then go back to the more enjoyable task of exposing the Pappies for what they are. Once a reasonable balance is achieved, you'll see me put on a different hat.

In the meantime, I'll continue to recruit pro PAP campaigners. However, in order not to upset anyone, I'll do it quietly behind the scenes from now on. I thought I was doing the right thing by being transparent and publicising my actions. However, I got no praise whatsoever for this stance so I might as well conduct a more covert operation.

How's your pickup hunting? Any progress?

I'm waiting for the next generation Hilux. The current generation is on its 3rd facelift cycle which means it's going to be replaced soon.

According to Khun Roong the Toyota salesman who service me its due in May. He persuaded me to wait and not go for the Isuzu V-Cross yet. I am very excited about it too and hope it will be better than the V-Cross.

Isuzu's D-Max V-Cross comes with full leather, surround sound audio system, screen control etc Khun Roong told me the new Hilux will at least have everything the Isuzu currently has so I'll wait. So far I thought the Isuzu looks beautiful both in pics and real life.

No sweat bro. Have a good joint if you can find the equivalent in Bangkok. Alcohol tends to be aggressive.

I've done a search on the net and I cannot find any information about the next generation Hilux pickup being launched in May.

In NZ, Toyota just launched their facelifted Hilux. The scheduled release of the next generation all new Hilux is sometime in 2013.

 

[Froggy]

Joe, is that lamb on the right?

Yes NZ lamb shank, it was was actually hanging in the BBQ grill while being cooked with the cover down. I put it on the grill for photo-shot.

The lamb is really good, soft and melts in the mouth. We had some Aussie beef too. In the middle are snails from the sea I was told we always have this for BBQ as Thais like it. We call it "hoi-wan" meaning sweet shells. Deep it with the very spicy green seafood sauce that my maid made its heavenly really.
