That's fair, I suppose I hadn't really thought of the real estate bubble as being driven by America's financial intervention. It makes sense intuitively since I know that American popular culture often saw the Japanese as the big scary monolith looking to overshadow the US, but I guess I never really considered the causality.

Being fair Japan, America and (adding as I'm from) the UK all have problems with rather racist members of our population.

This was *the* thing everyone was freaking out about in the 80s. If you showed someone back then the story about Nippon Steel buying US Steel they would have a heart attack

There’s an app called NERV which has a lot of detailed info, especially about the tsunami. You can see arrival times even.

"Dissolution of (the) coalition" (連立解消) is trending on twitter due to news about the LDP being mad about komeito blocking/dragging its feet on increases in arms exports. https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/ab578749939c302fc247ff2168b5981090228f0a the loony right-wingers have always hated komeito and are cheering on the idea. could be interesting if the coalition does dissolve. it's a half-remembered thing i heard in the one and only poli-sci class on japan i took (and only poli-sci class in general), but there's some thought that a lot of LDP's electoral viability is under-girded by komeito (read soka gakkai followers) voting for ldp candidates in districts komeito wasn't fielding anyone.

Seeing that on the Granite City steel mill would be glorious. In case you are wondering, Granite City, IL is like if you took all of New Jersey and condensed it down to one city.
