Ossan America true,and this island dispute with China is going to be the nail in the coffin for Japan's economy ....

JoeBigs this situation has turned it into a "gold mine"opportunity for South Korea,and other nations like Germany. Korea has big disputes with Japan too. What you're gonna see is a stronger forged relationship between China and South Korea,and the only teaching that's going to happen is Japan realizing that these islands weren't worth the fight. Of course it's going to be too late when they do.....

basroil but the US has fat oil reserves,and coal. Japan has nothing. So the situation is very bad for Japan...

I liked it when the black guy in the audience said that he had high hopes for Obama in 08,but not so high now. Then he asked Obama what are you going to bring down high prices. Obama said we got Bin Ladin,and put Wall Street in check etc. Totally avoiding the guy's question. I also thought it was good that Romney mentioned about operation Fast And Furious. Oh the look on Obama's face. He was drinking alot of water too...

Mano2012 thank's for that link. It was a good article....

All this is going to boil down to the outcome of the China+Japan island dispute. China is the big player here.....

I don't think anyone realizes that China is pretty much the worlds bank,and has ALOT of reserves. Other countries are over extended. Look what's happening to Spain,Greece(Italy next), and the Euro for example. So Largade's opinion means nothing......

Japan is still TRYING to recover from the Tsunami,and Nuclear disaster.Nuclear contamination.. This is gonna nail the coffin shut so to speak for Japan. We can thank Ishihara for all this......

This is also a big key threat...

Here.... http://economywatch.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/10/09/14320190-china-vs-japan-but-the-loser-could-be-the-global-economy?lite

Blackrock, the jobs will just move to other non Japanese companies,and there are alot of them. Those companies will expand. Not to mention bring in other companies too.....

GM,Audi,Volkswagen,BMW,Hyundai, LG etc. China will be fine without Japan.Japan on the otherhand is going to feel the pain. The economy doesnt have time for the move, or this big change.......

More bad news coming from Fukushima plant.

As soon as Japan recognizes Nanking. Then I think things will be different with the Chinese. I mean come on. There's no word/mention of all of the attrocities from Tojo and his followers in student history books. Only Pearl Harbor..

More details

I wouldn't touch that rice even with a 30ft pole..

Alot of this has to do with the nuclear crisis in Japan.

Ah yes the dreadfull Black Rain. Best described by Dr. Christpher Busby....

Yes it is twice worse compared to Chernobyl.

I meant did the radiation go all the way to Niigata.

You can bet it spread alot further than that...

The fact is Japan is in an extremely serious position and any steps the government takes now will be, by and large, too little, too late . This has been a catastrophe which will have more disastrous implications than even Chernobyl. The government has always been between a rock and a hard place because the truth would have had a country in complete panic, especially the "lifeblood" Tokyo area. They've had to try to keep things as normal as possible, but as can be seen, they can't keep the lid on much longer. As I've maintained from the beginning, if you have kids and you have another country to go to, you owe it your children to get out of here. In fact, anyone who doesn't have family or responsibilities here is crazy to stay.

This...

Hey Crazy Joe. Don't forget about the HOT PARTICLES that could be ingested too...

if i had kids i would. you could die of skin cancer you got from a bad sun burn. brain cancer from diet cola(supposedly). you just never know. better to enjoy your life and not worry about everything that can kill you.

Sunhawk this isn't the scenario. Where rubbing sunblock will protect your skin from UV rays from the sun. It's more like sticking your head in the microwave..

I can't imagine how many ppl have ingested cesium tainted food( meats,vegetables,seafood etc) in Japan already. This goes to the posters here too..

Hey Elbuda. I would be careful what you eat out there. Cesium seasoned food isn't good for the intestines..

I would be worried about taking a shower too...

WilliB you're staring to sound like a TEPCO representitive...
