Bubble, Bubble, Toil and Trouble

Nicholas Carlton made a documentary titled "Bubble, Bubble, Toil and Trouble" about the ban of chewing gum in Singapore.

Does government control produce a utopian society or an opressed people?

This fast-paced, music video style documentary explores this through the chewing gum ban in Singapore.

I am waiting for the day when the Government deem most Singaporeans as mature enough to dispose of chewing gum properly and thus lift the ban. Then, the moment someone spits a chewing gum or stick it on seats etc...whether it be a child, an elderly or even the Singapore idol, they will be publicly chided by gum-loving angry mobs who are afraid that the ban will be reinstated.

Am I too optimistic? I only hope that if this ban will ever be lifted in Singapore, it will be before I have lost all my teeth.
