After so many prior examples, Ministers still don’t know how to think before they type.

Grace Fu‘s comments on the ministerial paycut on her facebook:

When I made the decision to join politics in 2006, pay was not a key factor. Loss of privacy, public scrutiny on myself and my family and loss of personal time were. The disruption to my career was also an important consideration. I had some ground to believe that my family would not suffer a drastic change in the standard of living even though I experienced a drop in my income. So it is with this recent pay cut. If the balance is tilted further in the future, it will make it harder for any one considering political office.

 

Understandably, it drew the ire of citizens, and that post alone garnered some 474 comments and counting.

And then this happens:

BAM!
