@mrjeffu Does this include resident tax?

[Terrence Tate, office linebacker @Vergaenglich]

@HakataQueen Your renewable energy job in the US would probably pay $150k. $100-110k after tax. The equivalent salary in Japan is ¥27M. 2-3x salary and lower taxes makes a huge difference

@Noahpinion What’s your theory why the East has done better?

[Terrence Tate, office linebacker @Vergaenglich]

Urban core is wealthier than it’s hinterlands! Who would have guessed! SG is still the economic capital of Malaysia. It was wealthier at independence and remained. Yes, they could’ve screwed up. But it had incredible natural advantages that LKY exploited. SG is in the process of reverting to the mean with the current 3rd gen leadership.

@nikicaga Completely agree, Singapore has been one of the wealthiest places in Asia for almost 200 years.

@changez12938 @TetraChad Police in Japan are surprisingly random and ineffective. conviction rate is part of the problem, not part of the solution. The reason Japan is safe and cleanr is because people don’t commit crimes / make messes. Japan is clean; Singapore is cleaned.

@johnhawkinsrwn It would work in Texas, but the Republicans in charge are too corrupt & incompetent to build it.

@TokyoDeepValue Pitch*

[Terrence Tate, office linebacker @Vergaenglich]

@TokyoDeepValue Why don’t you teach these to PE firms? I think a one or 2% fee for idea generation is not unheard of.

@Noahpinion I feel like you posted at one point that slowly but surely Japan infrastructure will degrade. This is probably a symptom .
