So for the concept of persons who says is artist freedom seen a child been rape and torture is good? Is like Nazis torture Jews in cartoon or manga will be good right? For the concept of persons everything drawing in a paper is good and is not effect on people can't be influenced by the drawing artist so why this such kind of person Otakus is so influences by manga or anime fictional character? So Whose said is "artist freedom" they need a soon as possible going to a psychiatric evaluation, even in a cartoon is just sick seen that a child be rape or torture.

This is looking like 1980, when the country was in no mood to vote for a status quo candidate. Everyone said an actor can't be president. Then he won 44 states, restored the economy and ended the cold war, look like Donald will win 2016.

Posted in: 3 ways the Japanese entertainment industry keeps idol singers from dating See in context

@Harvey I'm not saying these girls or their legal guardians don't know what is in the contracts, I'm saying just because a worker signs a contract, it doesn't make a contract right with the demands it's asking

So parent are mentally incapable to going through a lawyer to have some legal advice to their children?

Can you answer me that what is purpose of a lawyer in this life if isn't seeking legal help to not getting screw up in this lifetime?

Labor history is filled with companies making absurd or criminal demands in their contracts like forcing people to work overtime with no pay or child labor in factories before child labor laws.

Yes because people just stand up, I don't know if you like J-Pop or any kind of Japanese music but if you do, don't buy any music of any kind of the music label from Japanese music label record because you're contributed this companies continued doing that, as your information consumer make companies growing.

*These companies are getting away with immoral demands because no one has stood up to them like what has happened in prior examples of unfair and unjust employment conditions. It is actually really upsetting to think with all of these former idols out there that no one has stood up and demanded laws be changed for what the companies can ask of young girls.

Cause the problem is, no matter how many girls refuse the contract, there are 10 more who will sign it and that makes it harder for anyone who wants fair treatment. So, a law needs to happen so the desperate can be saved from themselves and the companies can be punished.*

So like I say they can't going through a lawyer? Like Bill Gates says " if you born poor isn't not your fault, but if you die poor is your fault"

Here is not excuses if you are not able to read or understand a contract go to a lawyer if your legal guardians or parents are ignorants or mentally incapable to reason so go to a lawyer. It's just simple common sense. When you don't know nothing about any topic what you do in your life? You seek help right? Because no man born to know everything about anything.

No one have a gun point to the head of any girl/woman who sign this contracts? Nobody is pushing this girls to sign a contract? So who is he fault here? People just not using common sense just saying "Manipulative, exploitative bastards" or "Slevery Agencies". Blame the girls who sign up this contracts. If nobody sign this contract agencies policies will change is simple common sense so use it!

Posted in: Japan Inc supports bringing in low-skilled foreign labor: poll See in context

@shonanbb Well like cleaning super stores with washing machines and buffing machine, cleaning sidewalks with pressure machine, cleaning bathrooms, cleaning offices, dishwashers, garbage trucks, restaurant/coffee shops jobs, stock clerk midnight shift, constructions, carpenters, plumbers, air condition maintenance, landscaping, house and comercial building construction, heavy duty public construction like (rail road, roads, sidewalks), caregivers, fruit/vegetables farm collector. Almost that's the unskilled jobs, I don't live in Japan I can't tell if Japanese people will opt to do this kind of jobs for living rather earn more money and prestige going to a college or univercity to get a blue or white collar job. And we need to accept the fact this jobs in the long run your body will deteriorate gradually and the long run financially you won't get any reward just living for survive. But for some third world countries is better earn $10000 to 18000 Yen per hour than $8000 Yen per day so people do some sacrifices for their families in the other hand some people try to find loopholes and work undertable, welfare and housing. All depend the integrity of the immigrant/refugee/unskilled visa person.

Hopefully they will accept people unskilled profession 10 years of experience with hopes to change your visa status to stay permanently in the country to contribute more to the society of Japan. Without restrictions if you don't have family you can't apply like in many countries do, also accepting any applications rather if your don't live in a third world country.

I just want to point the fact you not need have a great population to have more income, just need brilliant minds to make success a country, if not why so many populate countries are not success monetary? Government of Japan just want make a"Ponzi Pyramid" to keep floating economically but doesn't work in long run. They should think in other ways to make a country great again, innovative, attractive, safe, open minded.
