DEFINITIONS

Some "tongue in cheek" thoughts that came to mind recently.

BOSS
Someone with BALLS. If the person doesnt have the balls to take responsibility for actions, to take charge, then the person isnt a "BALLS" (PUN Very intended)

POLITICS
Its a game when communication makes mountains out to be molehills and molehills become mountains.

For eg. when costs increase by 10%, but communication will deem such costs as one of the lowest in the world, when other countries experience higher costs

when salaries are very high, expensive peanuts, in the millions, communication will deem that its very low, compared to what one can get in private sector.


Person with POWER
Someone who is most skilled in stepping all over others, making everyone else FLAT AS crispy THIN PIZZAS and MUTE as DODO (meaning extinct)


SANDWICH / MIDDLE CLASS
Been caught between the deep blue sea and fiery hell. one who is neither rich enough to enjoy tax breaks/investment planning/etc, nor poor enough to enjoy charities/funding/etc
Everyone else in between slog like mad, pay the tax, and isnt any better off.


CPF
Something that you dont use unless you are buying house, dead, or past 65 or 70? or 90?????


HEALTHCARE

Care of the ill who can pay. (reference: documentary : sicko)


AGING POPULATION
>50% adults who are in their 50-60s and still working


Higher Life Expectancy
When you expect to be dead, but somehow you are not.



disclaimer : the above are meant to be tongue in cheek and if there is any strong coincidence to anything, its really just COINCIDENCE!
