Govt should find some solution to their hardship

Companies cannot make money means no jobs. Of course having to pay 30 percent or more in taxes never, ever, effects the job market.... Idiots.

Shoot first ask questions later. Japanese police/citizens= let biker gangs have anything they want, including your life.

The only other solution to raising taxes is to print money (a tax in all but name). I expect both to be employed.

I raised the issue on another topic, about printing money. Nice to see someone else call it for what it is.

Many countries being China, Japan, anything in asia. How did this affect the situation at hand? Americans bought things they could never afford to pay back, like car loans.

Your use of the term "government" obscures the role of different branches of the government and doesn't illuminate much because it leaves "politics" out.

I also cannot believe that you stated that because the president bailed the comps out that it isnt government, cause its not Congress. Laughable at best. The president did not stop being government overnight.

Government cuts the rate. The market decides the worth of the yen. The government intervenes. People who saved money, lose money/are robbed of worth.

A free market assumes a level playing field.

There is no longer, nor has there been, a free market in the US. Now the government just decided to bailout the auto companies, what about everyone else that lost jobs-they will be lining up to feast on the government teat.
