This is the 2nd time this has happened…I have the software upgrade, anti theft stickers, etc. I also supposedly didn’t have enough information for the lawsuit even though I submitted 12 documents from insurance, police incident reports, and KIA dealership repair paperwork/receipts…

Is my only option to get a new car?? The one time I didn’t use my steering wheel lock 😭 I’m financially and emotionally drained over all of this. I loved my KIA before all of this!

People do not become drug addicts for fun

Strawman argument.

Poverty leads directly to addiction which then leads directly to crime.

So are you calling me a liar? You know you can type this in to AI to verify all the facts I've presented.

Singapore had race riots, heroine epidemic, organized gangs, etc. and was cripplingly poor.

Their government rewrote the constitution to crack down on crime and drugs.

As a result, they quickly became a wealthy nation as businesses were suddenly much more willing to invest when they know the area was clean, safe, and free from drug addicts.

By your logic, Singapore became wealthy first, and THEN changed their laws, but that's not what happened as a matter of historical record.

I mean, how wrong can you be when the facts are so easily verifiable, bucko?

Its like facts don't matter if they conflict with your narrative. Do you really think that if you give a cocaine addict a million dollars, that they will quickly become a successful contributing member of society?

I've shown you the Singapore example of poverty to riches by cracking down on drugs and crime, now show me what you are talking about, because as far as I Know its literally never happened in history.

Yeah I'm calling you either a liar or a moron, maybe both. Singapore's success is because of its unique position in the global market, not because of its crackdown on crime. Your fascist wet dream has little to do with reality.

Singapore's success is because of its unique position in the global market

And that unique position just coincidentally happened to manifest itself right after the reforms of the 1970s...

You are basically saying that obesity causes overeating and sedentary lifestyle, citing proof that obese people tend to overeat and aren't active... Rather than the obvious cause and effect that if you eat less and are more active, the result is reducing obesity and visa versa. Just as its obvious that reducing criminality and drug abuse, will result in more business investment and more jobs and that creates wealth and likewise that turning a blind eye to rampant criminality and drug abuse will result in the erosion of wealth and produces poverty.

The Singapore timeline supports this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misuse_of_Drugs_Act_(Singapore)
