  • @cropperb

    I miss the times when american foreign policy worked so well.

  • Really interesting. Check out the book Japan Through the Looking Glass. Understanding a completely different society to one's own is not just interesting it is liberating because it brings forces us to reconsider all of the 'given's' in our own society. And Alan MacFarlane is such a humble, unshowy, yet reassuringly knowledgeable guide.

  • Bad video

  • fascinating.

  • Modern Japanese prosperity is due to the economic system forced on Japan by America afer WWII. Because of the American-mandated system, Japan and Germany are today the second and third economies on the planet.
