I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

We tax 2nd car owned to discourage but not to give other a chance. The COE should be reduced in number and people should learn to take public transport. Cars are unnecessary.

If they cannot afford a car, their needs are not met? Is singapore a country where people's needs go unmet?
Many Singaporeans who cannot afford a car learn to live without one. Hence a car is a luxury not a necessity.
If it is true there are people who cannot live with a car then they should have priority access to cheap cars.

But if the reason is because the rich is hoarding the food then the govt could make it easier for you to have a second meal.
There are people who need car. If don't have will not die but it will be a very big inconvenience. But for the rich it's different. They have a 2nd, 3rd or 4th car at home but at times they're not heavily used. It's a matter of luxury compared to others who have more need of the car, for example, need to bring old folks or handicapped kins to hospitals. If you ask cannot take taxi meh, of course can, but it's very very inconvenient.
