Japan has a Universal Health Care system where fees are set by the government. Japan gives 6 months of unemployment benefits. Japan has a social security system for people 65 years and older. This is an interesting video, but the analysis is kind of lazy. It took me 5 minutes to do this research on the net.

Explain why EVERY city they infest is destroyed then.

And what's with saying "word" ? That's niggerish.

Whatever the reason for Detroit becoming a 3rd world hell hole, it absolutely, positively has nothing to do with black people, word!

The A-bomb over Hiroshima was exploded at 1500 feet to cause maximal shock wave damage, not to reduce ground radiation. At ground level the bomb's radius of total destruction would have been much, much smaller. This video illustrates its point quite well: While Hiroshima was rebuilt from the rubble and is thriving today, Detroit is collapsing into rubble, as sure as if it had been hit by an A-bomb. Regardless of cause, that's fact, not bias.

how do you explain Detroit

[RETSZTIRF]

this video gives needed perspective to current events in the coming depression due to statism.

Wrong! The American government fueled Japan's recovery by funding 27% of their exports after WWII. Quality guru, W.E.Deming, and General Douglas MacArthur are credited with Japan's economic recovery. Deming was ignored by U.S. companies. Since we protect Japan, they can spend money on rebuilding. One can find vibrant photos of New York AFTER 9/11! A Google search will find hideous slums in modern Japan. The bomb was exploded at 1500 feet to reduce ground radiation. This video is biased.
