As an ex-smoker I feel that I can say smoking is stupid, and it should be called out for what it is, none of this ambiguous/who is right, who is wrong BS that has JT (Japan tobacco) has been putting out there.

Posted in: Osaka fined $15,000 for skipping French Open news conference; could face disqualification See in context
If she doesnt want to speak to the press, let her pay a fine, and get on with it. She is a tennis player, not a TV personality. What a stupid world we live in if we deny one of the worlds best athletes an opportunity to perform just because she doesnt want to answer the same 20 questions she has been asked a million times before.

after this catastrophe is over, officials will prompted to nationalize or socialize the system,
This will be incredibly difficult. Unlike places like the US and Europe, private clinics and hospitals are often run by individuals rather than big companies/corporations. Negotiating with thousands of individual businesses will take forever. The proper solution would be to increase the number and capacity of national hospitals. Unfortunately Japan has a very blase attitude towards disasters, and proactive measures like this just wont happen. Nothing will be learned from covid, and nothing will change.

"We are family friendly, but screw you and your family"
We share all our passwords with our family in Japan and overseas. When one of us is away for work, or the kids are at university, or staying at their friends place, why shouldn't they be able to enjoy a service we are paying for. These big corporations can stick the prices up if they want, but they should expect another boom in piracy.
