It is in the nature of authoritarian regimes in command economies that they look good when they get things done and, uh, look a little less good when the price(s) paid start to pile-up.

The US Postal Service could not do what SingPost is doing; Thank You, G-d and Thomas Jefferson.

In a case like this, I look at what we are missing, and feel grateful for what we are missing.

Cheers,
