    papasmurf: spot on with your comments

    The prices of dairy products have been on the upswing at the different supermarkets I go to for some time now. This will just make things worse.

    A brand new co-authored text, under the decidedly optimistic title of “Acclerating Japan’s Economic Growth,” comes up with equally grim figures for the years to 2020-2025 that are guaranteed to give Shirakawa lots of sleepless nights.

    Yeah, I bet Bank of Japan Gov. Shirakawa is losing sleep over this forecast…

    It might be a good idea for her to eat one or two of them before she disappears.

    Sarcasm:

    As my proof, I will just say this: google a bit around and find the hundreds of cases all around the world about people suffering from bad quality of Chinese products. Then come back here and label Japan as racist. Along with the US, all countries in the EU,…

    WhatJapanThinks: Thanks for taking the time to provide the info/link.

    Sarcasm just regurgitated a line from Cockburn`s story above. Very impressive, sarcasm123!
