Singapore is now the #1 passport in the world. https://t.co/MmzAkZHC8Z Singapore is now #2 in inbound millionaires per capita. Only the UAE ranks higher. https://t.co/nFybpz5XsN I like @tylercowen a lot, and his post is worth reading, but I draw very much the opposite conclusions. As he points out, the world has gotten crazier in ways that make Singapore far more normal. But that means their style of doing things is going to be not just normal, but aspirational. - Highly tolerant yet legally strict - Internationalist and capitalist - English-speaking yet Asian - Public services with low taxes - Clean and green - Modern and high-tech We need many more startup societies like Singapore, Dubai, El Salvador, and Starbase. And god willing, we will build them. https://t.co/IZ6RatsZ2Y @tylercowen Precisely. Lee Kuan Yew was one of the greatest founders of all time. We don’t fully recognize him in that way, because we don’t yet have 1000 founders of startup cities like we do startup companies. But we will. https://t.co/de3EkvsPl0 @tylercowen Singapore drained the swamp. @tylercowen Singapore is #3 globally in tech unicorns per capita. https://t.co/dbMFBPSL2t @tylercowen Singapore is #2 in Claude usage per capita. https://t.co/ZGaRLf6ul1
