id:norikku225 at Let's survive the subprime shock! (サブプライムショックを生き残ろう！) [ja] comments on news that the Japanese economy has entered a recession, as reported by national [ja] andinternational [en] media. The blogger says that there is nothing new in this and that the scenario has been the same for the last 15 years or so, during which time Japanese have made an art of overcoming recession; that is why investors were not so disturbed when, in the last trimester of July-September, negative economic growth was announced. Norikku225 draws an analogy between Japanese people and the protagonist in a remake of the movie Groundhog Day[en]: they will live the same day over and over until they mend their way of life.

Those Chinese are just very amoral sometimes. They have now exploited this poor little girl. It’s child labor at this most hidden. He Kexin is no more that 12 years old. Her hip and muscular structure are those of a very young girl. China should immediately give back the gold medals and remove the entire cheating Chinese gymnastics teams. Of course, the Chinese Gymnastics coach will have make a full apology to the world. He may have been under intense political pressure to win gold. I feel sorry for him. He will probably be sent to a prison camp for humiliating the government.
