Some random thoughts on language, culture, environment, and social justice. 奧巴馬的醫療改革是在「養懶人」? 我是在 2000 年才來美國的,之前在香港,看國際新聞時有聽聞過克林頓的醫療改革(後來無法獲得通過)。當時我的反應是,西方社會真不同,政府連這種「小事」也要管。其實,我是身在福中不知福。香港一直都有公立醫療制度。我那時從未聽說過有人會因生病而破產的。 The Under-Insured: 'Health-Care Crisis Hits Home'. 其中的主人翁(被訪者的弟弟),是否人們心目中的「懶人」、「窮人」、或者「不負責任的人」,諸位可以自行判斷。 March 11, 2009.

Some random thoughts on language, culture, environment, and social justice. 您若有一票在手也不去投票,您爭取的是甚麼民主?您爭取的是甚麼真普選? 難道遊行比投票更符合民主精神?是因為它的結果夠矇矓,可以任人解讀?是因為他的效率夠低夠悲壯?是因為您已遊行了廿多年,忘記了您在爭取甚麼? 我不反對繼續去遊行,但我反對自我閹割,有權利也不去運用。 與其跪他、求他,何不挺起胸膛,團結大家,讓民主開花?!

Some random thoughts on language, culture, environment, and social justice. But I need the convenience! There was a supermarket who thinks peeling banana is too tedious for their customers (see the news report here. So they decided to sell bananas pre-peeled, and then wrapped the bananas on a Styrofoam plate topped with plastic wrap. This is how lazy we as a society has become.
