You can't compare city-states to entire countries. But we can compare Singapore to other cities.

Oh really? But you used The Economist Intelligence Unit for your "Economically Strongest Cities" thread.



I'm not saying it's perfect but it's pretty much in line with all 'most liveable city' reports. Can't quite say Singapore is better than Australia when several Australian cities are better than Singapore.

Romero

No joke. Singapore's a great city and we can cherry-pick how it may be better in some aspects, but the fact is those Australian cities have a better standard of living. Just look at how much more they're sought after with immigration and tourism. "Easy to do business" isn't everything.

The Western Liberal form of government that has been forced on the english speaking peoples of the world since the 1960's is totally unsustainable and will eventually collapse under it's own foolishness. Simple common sense would tell you it cannot last. The ignorance of the average voter is appalling, which when coupled with governments whose only dogma is political correctness and a Supreme Court completely detached from reality leads to a pre-determined conclusion.
