well this will balance itself out after one generation (if the economy could survive for that long) this problem arises from the fact that reproduction rate for each woman during the baby boomers was 4-5 kids but now it;s less than 2, after one generation birth and death rate will balance out if they can convince Japanese women to have at least 2 kids during their lifetime but Japanese population will probably flat out at around 60 million

I lived in Tokyo for 12 years, it's the most convenient and efficient city I've ever been to, from the train and subway system to highway system and night life and the food, I totally agree it's one of the best if not the best, it offers you a headache free life whatever you want to do, the system and people are so efficient you do anything you want with no problem on budget and on time.

what's the big deal? lots of people get executed around the world everyday, just because they are Australian? they should've thought about the consequences before they did such stupid things, you don't always get a second chance, don't take it for granted.

it's not a matter of interfering in some country's affairs, it's a matter of human rights, it's a matter of humanity, if you saw somebody on the street about to kill an innocent person wouldn't you help if you could? Iranian regime is known to the world for it's brutality, some of my own friends where excecuted after the revolution just because they had a different political view than the rulling Mullahs, don't let this become another Rowanda or Bosnia, I admire Australian Prime Minister for his guts he's been the toughest on the Mullas so far, more world leaders should follow his example.

if they stay out of it they shouldn't claim they value human rights anymore.

is there something wrong with me or everybody's just out of it? Iran must be on the agenda, cutting all ties with Iran must be on the agenda, boycotting Iran's oil must be on the agenda, stopping all trade with Iran must be on the agenda, bringing the regime to it's knees must be on the agenda.

iranian regime's violent crackdown on protesters is going to dominate the G8 meeting and their rightful positionshould be to cut off all ties with the Iranian regime, such barbaric regime don't deserve to have relations with any country in 20th century, they are a regime out of the dark ages.

I lived more than 20 years of my life there, I know what savage creatures those Basiji militias are, when they shoot people in day light in front of crowds of people what do you think they are doing to political prisoners in dungeons now, they make Israel look like an angel.

I'm a persian, any country that has a single drop of humanity in it's vains will cut all ties with the brutal regime of Iran, that's the best gift anybody could give Iranian people at this moment.
