Budget = No budget = low birth rate

Budget is what? And the productivity is refering to what exactly? With the kind of working hours Singaporeans work, any kind of productivity levels will drop. To be honest, I everyday on budget. This budget will not help much. Most of the help is not from gov but from voluntary welfares and centres if you agree.

The way i looked at budget is probably meant for the rich to become richer and the poor to become poorer. Ever since budget started, i dun see average human beings more smarter, richer or even fend enough for themselves. They just got worst than ever. Not to mention abt the cost of living.

Make babies, you look at those ppl serving or regulars in army, u think they have time for making babies? Everyday on the ball for 12 hours, by the time they are home is to catch up on their sleep, not families nor anything else. With more women in the working force, they are more stress to task themselves to finish their work rather than make babies. Most will rather have more money to secure themselves in this kind of economic downturn rather than spend money on birth and taking care of kids.

Education, in order to have a better salary, one has to constantly upgrade themselves. After work, go for class, by the time they are home is time for bed and prepare for the next morning to work. So tell me how to have higher birth rate and the so call pro family creations...

Dun tell me it's a matter of time management. How much time do we have a day? 3/4 of the time we have sacrifice for work and the rest of the time to rest in order not to fall sick. Cos sick is also another cost of living that is a killing factor.

With more FW vying for jobs in SG and with their salary expectation so low, it will only pull Singaporeans' salary even lower. Dun forget the exchange rate. When they exchange our currencies to theirs, they can be rich enough to build their own homes. We are still struggling just to feed ourselves and our families, let alone say a home.

My conclusion of being a human is equal to nothing but liability of cost and burden. Unless u can strike toto/ big sweep first prize every now and then. But chances and likelyhood of that is probably zero. So why do i bother myself with the budget and everything? Take it easy lah... it's all their says anyway. Wait we say more kena pants drop then jia lat... best is to just shut up. Cos so far i hasnt heard or seen anything that a commoner says will affect the whole budget nor any changes will occurred. Bleh...
