    When companies are loosing 50% of their contracts thousands out of work are to be expected. With Japanese politicians just hiding their heads in the sand or should I say, in meetings to arrange meetings, to arrange other meetings to start thinking about arranging meeting to.......eventually think about some action, instead of being proactive and doing some thing positive it will get a lot worse.
