Bureaucrat Socialism Vs Private Capitalism
2005.08.11 3:28

Extremely harsh verbal battle began between advocates of them. As I declared I will do my best to back private capitalism.
As if it were a real war with diehard conservatives.
This is going to be the last war, liberal democrats ought to win since it is an advocate of private ownership of all the properties.
Japan's conservatives still hold Japan Post's 3 trillion assets, the battle's going to be the harshest one in these twenty years. I am not going to be the on-looker of this battle since I have been somehow relating to real politics.

Every now and then, here in the West, we hear news stories about useless construction projects that get pushed through by the Japanese government as pork-barrel funding. Often with disasterous effects on local scenery and environment—banks of rivers concreted over, unneccessary roads.--Recent Slashdot journals by all users [slashdot.org]

Often with disastrous effects on the entire nation and world...Unprovoked wars of aggression, religious themes being pushed in lieu of real sciences based education, outsourcing of jobs and lying to students that computer science majors are in demand, etc... plenty here at home too guys.Did I forget to mention removal of people's rights and allowing corporate amoral/immoral rulership of people's rights (I think they call it "rights management".[ Parent ]

We are still yet to see the outcome of what will become of the political map after the general election - it is already less than a month very short for any party to prepare for the election - the privatisation of postal services is a reform within a framework of current power structure.
Here as I pointed out that the tens of thousands of piled wealth is still in the hands of state socialism under the authoritative instruction of bureaucratic elites. That piled state fund -3 trillion dollars prevents foreign competitor from entering the Japanese market which is often described as unfair to outside Japan.
In this election, reformers will get tens of millions of support -not a direct fund but a spritual ones -from overseas -especially from the devisers of multinational corporations led and backed by US government and reformers are sure to win.

I myself feel it is already obsolete and absurd to hold tighly the concept of being a country's national identity -Me, I wanna be a cosmopolitan rather than one national of this tiny deviated land.I think that a nation can be cosmopolitan while still valuing its uniqueness. To be honest, I think that most nations bitterly regret what they give up in that sort of quest.

I myself feel it is already obsolete and absurd to hold tighly the concept of being a country's national identityIt's the curse of our times. And the cause of many of our problems. Most corporations no longer have a need to recognize national borders. Their money flows as freely as water. The border doesn't even slow it down.

National borders are illusion. People build fences and make laws only applied for their nationals, all based on their illusion. When they noticed their idea is an illusion, they no longer build fences, make laws on their own.

Since we still live like every other life form on earth, borders are a perfectly natural phenomenon. They're really just an extention of animal territorialism. To a reasonable human, the absurdity of the notion is painfully obvious. But the planet isn't being managed by reasonable humans...yet. Some parts were in the past, but that ended when the Europeans invaded.National borders are illusion.Unfornately, the weapons used to enforce them are very real.--Oooo...standing for the Queen, are we?

When people started using the same language, using the same currency, started adopting a similar political system, people no longer feel it necessary to have a border between them. It takes sometime to come -20 years, half a century..But it sure comes much earlier than we imagined.--Ancient Greek Philosophers -18c Enlightenment Thinkers -Slashdotters
