Damnit you guys.

I tried so hard

to refrain

commenting on politics.

Afterall political web blogging

during election time

is banned.

I ain't gonna push my luck

with these guys.

Yes, I do live in fear

and oppression.

Suddenly, I read in the papers

everyone talking

about First World.

Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew

said our opposition candidates

are not First World Opposition.

Workers Party Low Thia Khiang

replied that the PAP

is not a First World government.

LKY rebutted that if the PAP

was not a First World government,

the Would Bank and other international bodies

would not have regarded the country

as First World.

Why the hell fuck

are we talking about First World?

Isn't anybody interested,

in issues like rising costs

in Singapore,

housing, unemployment,

education and healthcare,

our economic prospect

in the region

and in the future?

First World my ass
