You're judging a nation based on the quality of life of the losers of society.... those who have run the race and can't handle the pace. While it may come across as noble and compassionate, it isn't an accurate gauge of how well a country is being managed.

My yardstick is to look at the opportunities a country provides for everyone and using this measure, Singapore is up there with the best.

Had I grown up in any other country, there would have been no way in hell I could have retired after only 20 years of work. I'm not brilliant. My parents were poor. There was no electricity in my home during my primary school days. However, thanks to the PAP, I overcame the odds by making use of the opportunities that the PAP created.
You are a lucky man indeed with your successful porn site generating constant income and without interference from the gahmen.
Nobody, in his right frame of mind would bite the hands that provide the opportunities. Your action is understandable but not everyone is born like you.

In any given race, there will be winners and losers. There is no need for the winners to despise the losers.
How well a country is managed, in Singapore context, does not translate to how well an average person lives.

The best managed and well run place would be the prison where obedient is the order of the day
