I foresee the first few batches of DigiPen Game Programmers trying to earn a living in Singapore because they will not have game companies to hire them.

Then these game programmers probably have to do odd programming jobs just to pay off the huge loan they took to study at DigiPen.

The best part is, even if they do end up in a local game company the bosses will work these guys to death because local game companies will always be short staffed and have unrealistic demands.

After all this was the same country that shamed us with the Zodiac, The Race Begins after spending US$2 million on it.

People shouldn’t be working past their retirement. But they are. Why because most of them do not make enough money to retire comfortably.

And the government instead of giving people pensions and welfare is basically telling our elderly to keep on working.

I find this rather amusing. Many years ago when questioned about why there is no social welfare program in Singapore for the elderly our government said it would cost them a lot of money and the people might get lazy and won’t be productive.

But the same government then takes the people’s money invests heavily in china and suffers massive losses, gives money to Indonesia for god knows what reasons, legalizes every form of gambling which our teachers told us not to participate in, gives the military a massive amount of money to waste yearly and finally splashes 600 million dollars on a durian that hardly gives you the thrill of riding a rollercoaster.

The truth is the only people in Singapore who can retire are our ministers. All the working class people in Singapore are being manipulated to work well past their retirement because they government FEELS the people might get lazy.

The last time I checked the government should be working for the people and the other way round.
