BS. The government and businesses are too "united" as it is. This is why Japan's economy is still more or less closed to competition from exports, why corporate collusion and price-fixing are never punished, and why former bureaucrats get high-paying senior postions in Japanese companies when they retire from government work.

We need to get rid of these geriatic old goats who are strangling the economy with their selfish and outdated thinking. We need much less of this "joining of forces" which benefit thr few at the cost of everyone else.
