What I never get is why the same people come here and talk about why we are all racist.

JET and the whole English teaching thing is a massive scam. How can the government or anyone keep splurging into these when even until today barely anyone speak English ? These are just vanity projects to bring le exotic hakujin into the country.

Where is the security ? If a Canadian did bad thing it's YOUR fault for not stopping him.

Japan is the darling of global investors these days, due mostly to its corporate performance

You're confusing Japan Inc and Japan the country. Companies Warren Buffet invests in don't necessarily do business in Japan. In fact more likely than not they don't make money from Japan.

Yen crashing again ? That's terrible. Oh wait. I'm actually getting paid in dollar.

Let the good times roll.

America is going to throw Japan under the bus like they did Afghanistan, Ukraine, and quite recently Taiwan. So in that regard it's true they influenced Japan's military budget.

Japan really needs to learn from other western countries on how to treat asylum seekers.

Like The UK, which brib.. er, struck a deal with Rwanda to keep them there. Or Germany which did the same with Libya and Turkey. Or Australia with Nauru. Or the USA which sends them all over the place from Mexico to Martha Vineyard.

Whatcha mean the passerbys should have done something ? You want them to play hero like the guy who choked the homeless man in New York ?

Nobody told them people can get away with smash and grab only in America.

Build the wall

He's going to be the leader in 2032 when the USA breaks up into Free American Federation and Soviet Socialist Republic of America.

And that is why they are the opposition party.

They both died happy. RIP.

But but we have Pfizer Moderna all the bestest vaccines, the maskiest people, everything Fauci sensei told us to do we do to the letter. Why ??

Japan is that guy who slays giants but gets mugged.

Americans have pretty good defense but not so great forwards. The Netherlands isn't exactly the strongest team either so who knows ?

No bullet-proof glass ? No steel barrier ?? No padlocked merchandise ???

This is dystopia. Dystopia I tells ya !!

What is the appropriate rate for yen ? One dollar for 100 yen ? One yen for 100 dollar ?

No let's leave it to the market to decide.

The market did that.

Then people cry why is it so cheap ?? Do something.

And we're back at square one.

Just ban this before it happens. Halloween is just an excuse for some people to turn the city into a playground.

By interest rate you mean THAT interest rate ? The money you give the bank when you take a loan from them ??

I wonder if Japan, you know the country with the largest debt on earth, had to start paying it ?

They intervened again this morning. Lasted only a few minutes before the gains were wiped out.

That would be $20 billion. Thank you come again.

moving to any other developed nation will see your living costs surge

You've never seen migrant workers have you ? They live in dorm, eat cheap to send their money home.

Gotta love JT readers who say why doesn't Japan be more like Britain.

The funny thing is that cheap Yen has been what Japan wants all along. Now they get it no one knows what to do. Boosting manufacturing and export ? Unlike before, today everyone from China to Vietnam is also making the same thing and one reason fuel prices go up is because they all also buy it for their own economies. Can Japan compete for resources, more importantly for brains ?

Japan should really explore being a Thailand. So what if the economy depends on tourism ? We all know the country is shrinking so instead of insisting on a revival better focus on soft-landing.

When did you realize that the free world resembles Putin's Russia

It's not that Yen is weakening. It's just moving to its appropriate place.

Who are the puritans who are the progressives I can't tell anymore.

I miss the days when US' interests were just cheap oil.

I've been told many times vote Trump and you'd have war and chaos

Today I learned that it is okay to discriminate against religions.
