Should the government give a wage subsidy to private sector employers to employ locals?

I asked this question in the Wisdom of the Crowd - Should the government give a wage subsidy to private sector employers to employ locals?

45% of those who voted said it is better to reduce the cost of doing business in Singapore.

34% said it will help to equalise the cost of employing locals and foreigners.

14% said it is better to allow the employer to choose the most suitable worker.

7% said it will be too costly for the country.
