This is exactly why I hate unions. Asking for a pay raise when thousands are out of work? Greedy and shows that unions just don't have a clue.

No one here has suggested tough laws for those non-whites in our home country. In MY homecountry there are laws against racism, discrimination... and those laws/penalties are actually put into place. MY home country lets in numerous folks form various countries and helps them with language training, education... Japan does…

I agree Lazy. You can't park anywhere in the cities here without fear of the bike police and having to go get your bike out of bike prison. If they would allow free parking near stations and whatnot there wouldn't be an issue with bikes paeked all over the place!

I agree - there really is no one to decide from. This is Japan's fault for allowing this family passing on thing to continue to exist. None of the folks they could chose from has any idea what the average Japanese person lives like. I'm afraid they'll just end up…

They need to start making bike paths on the road. I am sick and tired of mothers, kids and drunk salarymen being on the "bike path" and giving ME dirty looks when I ring my bell to tell them to move!

When will he take responsibilty ofr the crappy job he's been doing??? The guy needs to step down. Japan should be ashamed off Aso and demand he be gotten rid of. But as we know.... "Shoganai"!

How is the hospital responsible for this? She didn't have to eat it. Could have ask for something else - or a family memeber could have made her something or helped her eat breakfast.

Besides if she was throwing up, the reason for death wasn't choking.

Now if only Aso would follow.

Honestly, Japan's government is a laughing stock. Less than 10% for Aso and yet no riots in the street.
