As long as the economy keeps improving, his position will stay secure.

The economy is not improving and will never improve, with 40% of the working

population making below 30,000 dollar annually. Most of the so called economist

telling us the economy is improving are high income earners who are removed from

the reality that the average Taro or Hanako is going through daily eating a decent meal

one doesn't need to be an economist to know that the economy will never pick up as the

Gov't allows the Manpower placement companies practise modern day slavery uncontrolled.

Even the large corporations like Panasonic, Mitsubishi have also created their own manpower placement

companies to join in the exploitation.

We are told the economy is improving yet young Japanese, citizens of the 3rd largest economy in the world continue to go to Tasmania to pick fruits.

Koizumi did so much damage to the Japanese economy yet the media continue to hail his legacy.

How does one expect children to grow healthy and strong when fish, beef, fruits and vegetables

are out of the reach of most families.

I will take any figures released by any J-gov't controlled organ with grain of salt.

The good thing is stability. But I want Abe to be humble: even if you get 100% support from LDP, it is still minority of the nation. So, keep your head down and lock your gun and don't shoot.

You cannot wish someone to fail when he or she has already failed.

Abenomics has been a failure from the onset.

Wise words, Jeff Lee. I agree 200%. Things are ticking along nicely, very strong growth, record employment, record exports. People care about the economy most of all. PM Abe to win.

Naturally, if the official stats routinely undermine your worldview, then the stats MUST be wrong.
