The value of the YEN has doubled, since I have been here..

Perhaps it has merely maintained status quo as the dollar slipped to 50% of it's value.

Now, Japan needs to keep an eye on the rear-view mirror. Germany and Brazil are gaining ground and may overtake the Asian country in coming decades as well.

I'm not sure about Germany and Brazil, but I'm pretty sure that rear view mirror must have Korea in its sights.

They're taking away Japans electronic edge, tourists, and even "J"-pop has turned into "K"

Oh the humanity!

Borrowing 40% of their annual budget? What an economic baskate case!

At least we’re not like that in the US - we don’t have an annual budget...
