It's unfortunate that the Japanese economy is at a low point right now, because what is sorely needed are emergency loans for deserving people and companies that need to get back on their feet. These kinds of people are the ones who will rebuild the shattered regional economies of Tohoku.

Great foresight shirokuma2011! Take Whistler for example: it's a bustling place on the weekends when the crowds come in, but it's a freaking ghost town any other time (even though there are luxury domiciles in and around the place). The situation is exacerbated by the fact that it's hard to reach from the nearest population center (Vancouver) and this makes everything expensive.

I went to Pizza Hut and they didn't make it like they do in Canada. I can enjoy a margarita made by a Italy-licensed chef too, but I expect consistency within the brand, know what I mean? They didn't even have pineapples to make Hawaiian pizzas. At Pizza Hut! Travesty!

LostinNagoya: They might be inflexible on some things, but they compare favorably to the American lines flying the same route. Maybe ANA could give them a run on their money for customer service though..

People that are stressed to the point of suicide don't usually make rational decisions, like which floor to jump from. He probably felt the pressures intensifying as he walked down the steps or descended in an elevator until he couldn't handle it anymore and made a fateful decision to jump.

If you wanna see what happens to the working class without unions, go to China. Of course company owners and managers wanna abolish unions, it means more profit for them. It has nothing to do with the economy.
