One of the best leaders during our lifetime. What he did in Singapore is amazing.
It is amazing for people who would like to live in a one-party state where the government tells them how to live their lives, how many children they should have, what they should eat, what their kids learn in school, where they should live (and what happens to their bodies after they die) and what they should be allowed to read in their newspapers.
Not quite the sort of state that freedom-loving individualists would normally appreciate.
Don’t get me wrong, I have a soft spot for Singapore but it is precisely the sort of state that most people who read FreeRepublic would loathe.
