I promise you do not need to explain scarcity to me :) the issue is that the disparity between I can’t afford a car, and I will never be able to afford a car is vast.
The slave class exist to do nothing but serve (be on the street at 2300, it’s poor people running power washers everywhere you go).
The entire country runs on Chinese goods in shipping containers going to the US. It’s a tax state.
Don’t get me wrong, unique place, I loved it. But ya, not what it seems, lah.

There's no disparity. Either way you're not going to own a car any time soon.
You're not freer when the legal system prevents you to do something because you don't have enough money than when the legal system prevents you from doing that thing for other reasons.

If that's true: tell me, why do people in the US or China pay for an expensive transit in Singapore?

What?
If you go out into the street at 11pm you'll see poor people running power washers everywhere you go
I've lived here since 2017. I have yet to see the poor people running power washers at night.
Which neighbourhood do you suggest I visit for this spectacle?
