    Agree, if everyone stops spending then things will crash for certain.

    Just be reasonable. Don't panic. The smart people will use good judgement with spending and carry on with life. If you have risky exposure with investments, then adjust them. Otherwise a long term view is still smart.

    If everyone…

    Worried for good friends and former colleagues that have moved on to Lehman's. This is sad news for people we care about.

    Too bad the greed of a few short sighted and overly greedy people and companies has resulted in so much hardship for normal working people. We should start…

    I think we put too much emphasis on milestones in our lives. "Our Defining" moments should be how we live and behave day to day. The small kindness of encouraging a co-worker who is having a rough day. A mom comforting a child. A father being home to spend time…

    Having had some experience with trying to get the Ichikawa police to deal with a dangerous person, I can't image that they will accomplish anything towards resolving this case.

    The local cops couldn't even be bothered to take a hit and run complaint at the nearest Koban. They said, "Oh,…

    Greed is the key reason that things are as bad as they are. When you look at the subprime issue, anyone willing to look at the downside should have seen the potential risk. But a booming housing market and a lot of money to be made blinded these people to…

    Another example of the extremes in decision making.

    Look you can use the tainted rice for things like glue. So keep importing it for those purposes. That is not a problem.

    The problem is stop feeding to people so you can make a little more money. Don't treat these companies…

    This kind of non-sense is why the Japanese courts fail to serve the public in any meaningful way. Wasting time on something so foolish as this doesn't help anyone.

    What is the point? The party will decide anyway. LDP is LDP so there isn't any real light at the end of this process anyway.

    The only hope is that Koike is pulled by Koizumi's fans in the LDP and we can see moderate progress on some minor issues.

    If…

    "Miscreants?" What a weird word to use for this.

    "Depraved or behaving badly." Ok so this fits. But why Miscreants? Was this attack carried out by frustrated teens looking to hurt someone? Or criminals who were taking some kind of revenge on the mosque?

    What is the story here. Miscreant…
