Help, Help, Help!
Young people buying HDB flats need help. People needing medical treatment need help. The retirees and aged and the poor need help. But everything is affordable! Why would all these people need help when everything is affordable?
HDB prices are still selling above market rate. Can't this be managed so that the prices are really affordable without help? Medical fees, out of control? Nothing can be done? The poor and aged, why are they being left behind by the high cost of living?
If we seriously managed the cost of essential goods and services, including HDB flats, the people should be able to manage their lives without govt help. Helping them is a reflection of policies going wrong. But we have the whole world to blame despite all the super talents and their super pay. Why can't they solve these problems? Maybe that's the best they can do.

Yes the entitlement mentality is alive and well, not only in S'pore, but all over the planet.
According to some commentators on the net, the entitlement mentality is a global epidemic.
I tend to agree with that view. And I place a lot of the blame squarely on the public education system.
