When meritocracy is stupidity





The problem of highly qualified Singaporeans unable to find employment is not only serious but politically unacceptable to a Govt that has responsibility to its people first and foremost. Silly politicians that keep harping blindly on meritocracy need to be voted out from Parliament. Meritocracy and the practice of meritocracy as a country are very different and complex from practising meritocracy in a well of frogs. In the well, the frogs are safe from intruders and have only among themselves to see who is more meritocratic. In the land of the blind the one eye frog shines.

Singapore only has a population of 3.3m, citizens and PRs. An open door policy to invite foreigners here to work, with only meritocracy as the criteria, is simply insane, stupidity at its peak. There are 6 or 7 billion people out there and if being more talented, or merits, is justification to work here, to replace another Singaporean, the whole 3.3m people should be replaced, from the President and PM and to the low down beggars on the street. Sure you can find millions of people out there that are more meritocratic than a Singaporean or the PM.

Just because the frogs in the well are protected from competition, they can throw the meritocracy card at everyone, not good enough get out, there is always a better foreigner to replace another Singaporean. Why don’t the frogs allow fair competition and let the more meritocratic foreigners to replace them? Never, they know too well that there will be many many out there that will be better than them, every one of them.

In practice, many jobs can be done by a Singaporean. The education and skill level of many Singaporeans are more than adequate to do the job. You don’t need someone with 3 degrees or a master’s to be a middle executive doing administrative work. You don’t need to drive a sports car to get from point A to B when any good decent car will do. It is a fallacy to pick the best when the best is ten times over qualified for the job that a Singaporean is qualified to do? Does this sound complicated?

Who are we kidding, that Singaporeans are not good enough to fill all the middle management positions with the qualifications they got from our world class education system and universities? Who are we kidding when many are employed instead of Singaporeans for all the wrong reasons except being meritocratic?

The nonsense that is happening in the employment scene must be made right and it is the duty and responsibility of the Govt to put it right. It is the Gov’t’s thoughtless policy of opening the door widely to foreigners with little due consideration to the employment needs of the citizens that is the problem. Meritocracy without due recognition to country and citizenship is simply crazy, madness, and idiocy. The whole population should be moved out and replaced by more meritocratic people from all over the world. Yah?

Hi RB, one need to think deeper. LKY is a fan of India society. He is a evangelist of hinduism. And meritocracy is a code word and to convert Singaporeans to Hindus.

We need to ask why India is the most fucking miserable country in the world today. It is precisely the outcome of meritocracy, where everyone to each his own.

In India, the Brahmins are cleverest. They occupied all high post base on meritocracy. To the Dalits, you go to hell, so said the Brahmins.

And today, India has IQ of 81, among the lowest in the earth due to 3000 years of meritocracy, with Brahmins getting ever richer and parasitic.

We knew the Nordic society is the most harmonious in the whole world. Nordic are socialist. They do not practice jungle meritocracy. In the end, the whole society prosper. Everyone has high IQ. Nordic school system is the best in the world. The student are not stress yet they achieve very high academic ranking. Why?

Because of socialism. In Nordic society, everyone help one another. In the end, society advance.

The outcome of LKY meritocracy can only bring Singapore into shit. Eventually Singaporeans will become Indians where everybody is defending the right to rape and to shit on streets.

There are so much wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony in this small little cumtree. I wonder how long it will last. Anyway, i think the OECD cumtrees are now ganging up to destroy top tax havens.

Good.

The sooner bankers are kick out from SG the better.

We need to live a honest life, to bring up our families using our labor and hard work.

To usury, launder blood monies, tax havening are very bad for karma. If we do not stop that, we are going to get retributions.

Good luck with that. Read Machiavelli. Politics rewards the most crafty, charismatic and the best bullshitter.

Wayang only lah.

I doubt they'll succeed. They try and try, but damn hard to do.

Especially with a place like Singapore who has NO FOREIGN DEBT, meaning the OECD and it's pals at the IMF, UN, World Bank etc. have no leverage when it comes to Singapore. The OECD doesn't even have the balls or the power to attack Delaware -- a well-known, well-used tax haven INSIDE the continental US of A.

The OECD has been around for 50 years. Tax havens are still going strong and money still flows there -- to avoid TAX!

Anyway, territorial tax havens are one thing. Already there are online tax havens -- distributed networks -- borderless and anonymous, and well-defended by a self-correcting, learning and self-improving systems. Good luck trying to shut that down ;-)
