| This touchs 3 important topics in our society: education, health care and retirement. I guess one topic would merits one book :-) Having grown up in China and lived in the US for last 10 years, I have seen both sides of the things: China and US; good or bad. These problems are especially challenging for big countries like China and US, mainly because of the size. I don't hear much negative comments about Singapore's social security (insurance). I think one principle lies beneath the problems is: how best to re-distribute the wealth generated by individuals to provide human's basic needs to live (food, healthcare) and to be a productive citizen (education). There are many flaws and much unfairness in the US system. Unfortunately, from my observation China's healthcare system is moving into things like US, which made me feel very sad. |
