This is video I was talking about. But to your question, I think it is a currency issue and pride. I remember a year ago there were huge protests in front of a popular tv station because they were promoting more Korean television shows than Japanese shows. They are prideful as hell about their country and their way and now you have these other people from Korea and China coming in the country flaunting their success. The earthquake really messed up a lot of businesses in the country. The country as a whole is still in recovery mode.
Now regarding the Chinese...that hate is soooo strong. When China tried to claim those islands it stirred up some serious shyt. So a lot of people were like fukk the Koreans, but REALLY fukk those "Dirty ass Chinese". It is really hard to catch them saying anything nice about the Chinese, terrorists (of course), and now the violent ass Americans. (The big news here is going insane over the stabbings in Guam)

You can really tell there is a huge upper class here that gets into all types of fukkery. Everyone works hard and even (insanely) but there are a bunch of people getting PAID. So you have this society where the rich go to clubs and buy out entire clubs and bring in young women just to party with. Wearing Parada Gucci and I fukked around and saw a Escalade yesterday...(Extremely Rare).

I wouldn't be surprised a lot of the problems are stemming from the currency.

Haha wow crazy stuff bro. If their currency is diving out of control, that's another issue, too. I know they've had their share of crashes and the earthquake and meltdowns they suffered a year or so ago is still hurting trade. One thing is for sure - they are a tough, rugged people, educated, and optimistic, so even if they would say crash now I would expect them to pull out quickly. Also I think their government is shrewd and watching this with some card up their sleeve to keep it in check. I get that from some spotty stories I've heard on one of the media outlets I like.

Well said OP, that's one of the main reasons why I won't be here in 10 years.
Contrary to popular belief, there are better places to live, off the top of my head is Nigeria; Kenya, Peru, Argentina, Brazil, Columbia, Thailand and other countries in SE Asia. The funny thing is, you can live out there for much cheaper, and the weather will likely be better than where you live at. :pachaha:

LOL that's just an generalization. Not really true. They are more focused on drinking and smoking cigs. The young women are Americanized...meaning they are after that money.

Word...wasn't there a trend a few years back that Japanese girls were giving up themselves for Gucci bags?

The people who stand for nothing, fight for nothing, contribute nothing seem to be the most vociferous when proclaiming their contempt for the conditions they do nothing to improve. Complaining about shyt YOU have the power to fix while sitting on YOUR azz waiting for other people to do what YOU should do has somehow become the 'American Way' for a lot of people. So, if you're wondering why shyt isn't getting 'better', look no further than a mirror.

first of all we are a corrupt, violent society, ignorant of the world around us. We equate freedom with the endless purchase and possession of guns, whereas in reality our freedoms should lie in Washington, where our so called representatives are slowly eroding our civil liberties. We have a government whose only interest lies in the re election of its own members, and where the interests of the people and the country itself are left in the dust. Decisions are made according to re election needs, and according to the size of so called campaign contributions (bribes). We have a sorry history of mass murders since this gun madness began in the texas towers in the 60's and has continued unabated since then, with no end in sight.

We equate everything evil with muslims who are, if you read the koran with an open mind, far more peaceful than christians and, over time, have caused far less sorrow and destruction than the Christians including yes, that old bug a boo, the crusades. Yes the Koran does condone the killing of infidels only, and only if, the Muslims right to pray is impeded or violated. Even then, it is best parlay and settle the problem diplomatically, via a discussion and, if nothing works, then he may resort to violence. The Koran also mentions that respect must be shown to both jews and christians, since they descend from holy prophets, such as Abraham, Moses and Jesus. The bible, booth old and new, and the church, advocates killing anyone who disagrees with established dogma.

No I am not a Muslim; in fact I am a devout atheist who wants to see religion and all that superstitious nonsense banned.
As for terrorists, let's look at home first. What is the definition of a terrorist? One who creates terri, death and destruction anywhere which is convenient to someone's particular cause. Let us look no further than Cuba, the Phillipines, Greece, Argentina, Brazil, Iran, Chile, Nicaragua, El Salvador and Panama. All countries in which we have toppled democratically elected governments and replaced them with thugs such as Noriega, Pinochet and the Shah of Iran.

Once we step off our pedestal and realize that our arrogance and hypocrisy are the cause of many world wide problems, things might improve a bit.
The really sad fact is that Americans are so proud of calling them selves Christians, when in reality our whole lives are spent doing everything contrary to Jesus's teachings. We crave wealth and possessions, we are becoming less and less tolerant towards others and our once proud traditions of generosity and philanthropy towards the less fortunate are being eroded and replaced with greed and selfishness. We create wars for the sake of profit, and our lives dominated by one thing only - money.

Yes you may say, but what about foreign aid? Foreign aid as a rule goes to those who possessions we crave. Oil, minerals, gold etc...When Rwandans were killing each other with the blessing of the Church what did we do? Nothing really, they have no oil or wealth to mention.
We need to wake up and realize that, like it or not, the world belongs to all of us, and the worse we make it, the worse off we will become. America had the potential to be great, to create a world unknown to humanity before, populated by men of genius and eloquence in our government (Jefferson, Franklin etc..) and we are now reduced to the likes of mumbling idiots such as Bush and Palin.
What has happened to us? What has happened to the vision of Americans the world had of us, of the selfless G.I who sacrificed his life willingly for others, and whom the world loved and respected?
