I'm not an expert, but aren't Switzerland and Singapore pretty lightweight governments?

Singapore is strange place - aside from being a city-state. You'll get sent to the gulags for being in possession of a joint, but prostitution is legal. I know a guy who once got in a bar fight there, and he immediately packed up and went to the airport.

I wouldn't exactly call it lightweight government.

  • I have heard the policing is very strict, but I thought on the business side they were extremely laissez faire.
