Comparison
Welfare state: good buffer against risks, but vulnerable to risk of bankruptcy. The Singapore model: sustainable, but need to find an optimal balance between providing benefits and upholding incentives. Taken as a whole, it is inclusive and comprehensive, if we consider the community, the family and the individual as key welfare providers. Who takes care of senior citizens with no savings and medical insurance? The sandwiched generation.
Concluding remarks
Inclusive and sustainable Optimal position which supports social justice, without dampening work incentive. This position may call for taxing the very rich, reducing wastage, and supporting corporate social responsibility. Creating a more secure, comfortable middle class in a society which emphasizes meritocracy and social mobility. Rapidly ageing population; grant general amnesty to help reduce the burden on future generations.
