Singapore Budget 2026 Promises AI Will Finally Explain Why You Are Broke

Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has unveiled a $154 billion budget designed to remind Singaporeans that the government is rich, even if your lunch now costs more than your dignity.

The $8.5 billion surplus will reportedly be used to build a giant AI that can simulate the feeling of actually being able to afford a three-bedroom HDB flat.

“We are building a shared future,” Wong announced, referring to the shared experience of watching the Ministry of Trade get a 69% funding boost while you reuse the same tea bag three times.

The focus on Artificial Intelligence ensures that when the economy inevitably collapses, a sophisticated robot can politely tell you to 'stay resilient' in four official languages.

Meanwhile, cuts to the Ministry of Sustainability prove that the only thing the PAP intends to sustain is your record-breaking high blood pressure.

Citizens are encouraged to celebrate this financial windfall by staring at a picture of a CDC voucher until their hunger pains subside.

This satire is based on a real news story.
