Hahaha.. what a joke!

Pot calling the kettle black.

It seems a dangerous bubble may pop up soon.

Btw actually China already begins the rollout of regional cap-and-trade pilot projects since June last year. http://www.nature.com/news/china-gets-tough-on-carbon-1.13175

I suppose ADB hasn't caught their attention yet.

Abenomics = Bernankonomics

The problem is, China has had policies to crowd industry into tightly packed cities with incredibly high population densities. These policies have made what could have been a manageable pollution problem close to unmanageable because of the sheer density. Whereas in most countries that aren't centrally planned have industry a little bit here, and a little bit there, China has them concentrated in the cities and absolutely nothing in the more rural areas. I would say without these policies of crowding everyone and all industry into cities, we wouldn't see a pollution problem in China.

This isn't new. No matter you are White, Black, or Indian, ALL foreigner generally have a hard time to able to work in Japanese firms and corporate. Not because of a political matter. But because the Japanese are tend too isolated (they have the greatest difficulty understanding a foreign language or culture) and are encouraged in "othering" people who are non-Japanese.

Abenomics is just another version of Ben Bernanke QE. This definitely not help Japanese economy for a long term. You can't fix the economy by only taped the wound. But cure them. Any chain reaction could happen during these recession times. It will impact Japan sooner or later.

And Japan obediently docile to its glorious serf's master.

Bring stability by become more and more authoritarian?

That's democracy for you. Just like in U.S, where 2 party system is basically a meritocracy controlled by bankers and corporations. And just like in Japan too, a semi authoritarian democratic government. There's no pure democracy & communist nation ever exist.

Typical island mentality of Japanese government.

So traditional

It's a sign that thing gonna collapse soon.

Japan don't need nuclear energy. LDP & DPJ are both CORRUPT!!

Incoming protest near you....

Turkey - check

Brazil - check

Egypt - check

Japan - pending

I thought he died

For god sake. Inflation will NOT solve Japan's economy. Definitely. Japan should solve the problem by create a solution. NOT create even bigger problem.

NOTES: (1) strengthen international order = support the U.S.A. and do what it tells Japan to do (2) freedom = the illusion that you are free to do and say as you like (3) democracy = another illusion to make it appear that the country is run by its people when In reality it's run by SOME of its people.

Well said

GMO are poison food. USA doing this for years already.

Abe makes Bernanke look like a joke!

Boom bubble boom boom~

This topic is so bias and wrong at many levels.

Go ahead, if Abe want to have its own military. But don't serve the American. Kick the American from Okinawa. Don't afraid being criticized by American for not having "American version of democracy".

Goodbye $$

Q4 2013 is my bet.

Insular Japanese is very insular.

can't wait for another burst!

Those are white people's mannequins. They don't have "Japanese" mannequins in Japan? how lame.

The LDP are America’s lapdog.

This is shameful.
