Chaos at Don Mueang Airport as Singaporean Suspect Arrested for Bomb Threat
Before voting to hang him I think he should be psychologically assessed as his behaviour is not normal. It may be there are mitigating circumstances that should be taken into consideration when deciding the outcome. -

Ex-Commissioner Warns of Legal Risks in Cash Handout Scheme
A former election commissioner raised concerns over the Thai government's 10,000-baht (£230) cash handout scheme, labelling it as potentially illegal. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Needless to say, it is certainly for buying votes: Bribery. Or What Else It Is For? And after their handout of some money, the current govt is promptly planning to get that money back by their increased levy on Salt and Cooking Oil. They are both intended for the 'Better Being of the people of this kingdom'. -

Thailand's Expats Urged to Register with TRD for Tax, Says Expert
I have no idea how much US SS is, but I do know that it is not taxable in Thailand Why ? The time to consider it is when it actually becomes a thing. If it does happen, this house will then become a holiday home for 5 months of the year. Stop considering things that might happen, act when they do happen. -

Biden Administration Implements Looser Immigration Policies Ahead of Transition to Trump
Stop calling this assault on the US a "crisis," "migrant crisis," or anything similar. It's a straight-up illegal invasion. Appropriate consequences are justified for all involved, especially to those that designed and perpetrated it; double for anyone attempting to ramp up this treason before the traitors are evicted in two months. -

Is this the "Little Surprise" of 47 and the Speaker?
Public services are socialist aspects of any society. I don't consider taxes specifically socialistic, but they are a way to fund the government. In a true socialistic society, there would be no taxes because there would be no wages paid. People would just work at what they felt was best for the society ("from each according to ability). Socialism existed long ago. It was the way humans (and many other animals) have lived together since time began. The terms "socialism," "capitalism," and "authoritarianism" were created long after that, but even those terms have existed in the English language for centuries. Most all "murderous, hate-ridden dictatorships" were not socialistic or communistic. Many claimed to be, but they were not. Most of these were plutocracies and tried to gather all the wealth of the country into a few people at the top of their authoritarianistic governments). Socialism and communism do not "divide the world into Exploiters and Eploitees." Both socialism and communism don't divide the "world" (society) at all. They treat everyone the same. In the case of socialism, that treatment is based on the perceived needs of the individual ("to each according to need"). In communism, there is no division at all. Everyone owns everything equally. The only historical example that I know of is the legends in the Bible of Jesus and his disciples. There have been some communes (communistic societies) established in some countries, but these are just experiments in communism. It is capitalism that divides people into exploiters (those with the capital) and exploitees (those who work for them).
