Surprise, surprise, Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan are not on the list. But they are profitable banks and in no way have been saved and subsidized by the American taxpayer and government (har har!!!). And they have paid back their TARP bailout money! Of course they were able to do…

How dare they report on crooked things going on in Obama's favorite little group, ACORN. The nerve!

Romeo romeo, you couldn't prove the point better if you tried. Overweight black women in t-shirts sitting around in community centers might be news in Uncle Rupert's fantasy land, but in the real…

Shocking news that, Fox News is not news. The little Aussie battlaa Uncle Rupert spotted a market and saw a way to throw a few more shrimp on the barbie and tinnies in the eskie. If the USA had a large number of free-loving, nude polygamist vegans you would get…

China is not manipulating its currency to gain unfair trade advantages

@chuckers- Who pays the pension premiums is not the issue. It's a gaijin tax because foreigners don't receive the benefits (except in very rare cases) and receive only partial or no refunds on their payments, while Japanese payers will (hopefully) be able to receive the benefits when they are pensionable…

He could start by not letting the big banks steal all the money. Until he does that there is no point in trying anything else.

Good article and comments here, but I think the statement "Pension and health insurance payments are made at the same time, and cannot be paid separately" applies only to shakai hoken and not to kokumin hokin (the article reads that it is true for both). Kokumin health and pension are…

Well he did have a good reason to be ticked off if the looking bored explanation is right. Half of Japanese prime time TV seems to be a bunch of "tarento" sitting around in a studio pretending what they are doing is interesting and funny. If they don't pretend then…

You don't think there are lobbyists on the other side of the fence?

Lobbyists do not sit on either side of the fence. They and the people they work for own the fence. Why would anybody think lobbyists care about political orientation or be surprised that Democrats were the biggest…

Any American who listens to anything these bloodsucking lobbyists say and believes a word of it deserves everything they get.
