It’s not one or the other. There are plenty of societies that meet the bar you describe without the restrictions Singapore has in place.

There was a sweet-spot, subjectively speaking, for Twitter mid-2022.
A powerful passport doesn't mean they can move anywhere to live permanently and if they choose to become a citizen of the country they do move to then they will lose their Singaporean citizenship.
Singapore is many things but not none of what you've written.
> But preemptive surrender is no sign of wisdom. Any reality made by human beings can be remade by them. The price of this power is mutual obligation: we can never let ourselves off the hook. The things we can accomplish together are, by definition, within our sphere of control, even if we have to act through structures that are bigger than any of us alone to achieve them.
Stoicism doesn't answer the question "what can and can't we control" and doesn't claim to. I think the modern neostoicism trend is to make the reader believe that they have little control over daily life, encouraging an almost narcissistic-nihilist response to ongoing events.
That's not to say all books in the genre are useless. I have recommended Cal Newport's works before but they very much suffer from "this 300 page book could have been a blog post" levels of verbosity.
As a Canadian national in the US I wouldn't even attempt doing this in the current political climate.

US consumers would have to travel to Canada for injections which isn't practical unless you live on a border town.
It's unlikely to meet the bar for personal importation as you say.
That probably won't stop people from trying. There's already a huge market for illegal compounds and GPL-1 drugs are available alongside the usual testosterone and other steroids.
Nikita has had a rough couple of weeks. Targeted with the most vile antisemitism I've seen after attempting to get doxxing campaigns under control. That is hard to do when your boss is overriding every decision you make.
I'm not sure X is salvageable at this point. The internet's town square is starting to look at lot like a 1930s German beer hall.
> Note: This decision was made without the assistance of automation.
At the end of any messages from the Admin team.
Did it say the words "automation was not used in this decision" or something similar.
I have personally never seen reddit overturn a ban and they don't spend a lot of time on cases because they have so many nonpaying users it probably makes little economic sense for them to do so.
I don't have a huge amount of faith CA will get housing costs under control but doing so is clearly one of the prerequisites to get a handle on the homelessness crisis.
Edit: The Times says this is to include all workers:
