1) LKY’s autobiography is incredibly readable. Highly recommend.

2) It’s bizarre that discussions of “socialism” turn on Venezuela and the USSR instead of Singapore, which was explicitly governed by socialism.



Singapore socialism is quite interesting. From what I’ve read it’s bare bones (we won’t let you starve), includes forced savings and cost sharing (you need to have skin in the game).

Kind of capitalism with the minimal amount of socialism to maintain a stable society.
