Good riddance. I wonder how the elite will control the son to stay in power.

France sucks but with a better debt to GDP ratio, a lower inflation rate and higher growth (define growth...) the UK is worth and slowly rolling to insignificance...

Maybe she should also ask for all funds stolen by her father and family alike to be restituted. That won't happen...
Humanitarian reasons... Hmmm avoiding to be lynched maybe?

What does "unemployed" have anything to do with the story? Maybe they should specify the shoe size too. Just in case.

I give you a hint: corporate money orgies.
For the people that lost money, too bad. Don't trust your money with those investment firms/bank. By working experiences, I can tell you that they are green back vampires sucking your money for their lavish lifestyle.

Obama, many people had hope in you and promised changes. As a result, well, nothing has changed and you can't blame the opposition for it. You are inept as the opposition. "Pledge to fight for the middle class" Yeah.. whatever...

Simply disgusting? Feeling sick? Wait, movies about mass murderers, killers etc have been made in the past. What about the respect for those victims too? Who told you it will a movie about an innocent Japanese hiding from the authorities? Maybe in 10 years it will more appropriate? Maybe 20 years? Come on...

Harsh competition with "Watch Paint Dry 2". Good luck with your movie.
"The 12 million yen spacecraft model was made to be used in the film which is due to hit the big screen in February. "
12 million yen? Cardboard, salad bowl, survival blankets here and there, et voila!

wtfjapan: you've been corrected already before in a different article (November 5th) claiming the K was made up of Intel and NVidia processors. Or are you talking about the TSUBAME 2.0? About the Cray Titan, well, it isn't built yet and Fujitsu also announced the FX 10 that will supposedly surpass the Titan.

While I'm against regulations I can guarantee you that without any, the state of the planet would be even worse. Humans are too short sighted and selfish. Leave 10 kids with a jar of candies and watch what happens.

Hmmm... then he did a pretty bad job looking at what Freddie Mac had become...
JeremiahW: Yeah. I saw that one. Quite a shocking story. The best is that they don't care at all. They find totally normal.
WilliB: you sound like FoxNews... change your record, please. They all are corrupted and have the hand in the jar.

This kind of summarizes the whole article. An another risk is if the current situation reverses after most goods are produced overseas and yen rises, we won't be able to afford most of the thing we rely on and Japan would have lost manufacturing skills to bring back productions. Companies might increase their profits from overseas operations but the other day in a different article, it was said that 60% Japanese economy relies on consuming goods. Moreover, the engineering skills might stay in the country for now but that will also erode. Tuition in the west for higher educations are becoming unaffordable and there isn't much unskilled jobs around. More and more Chinese get higher educations abroad like in the US, Japan and Europe but don't stay there since China will offer more and more opportunities to them.
The government is absolutely powerless and Japan is a sitting duck waiting to be shot at.
