I revere the gods and Buddha but don't rely on them. 2011/3/24
I went to bed earlier last night and woke up earlier than usual.
Watching TV, I thought that up until now, TV (mainly commercial TV) has been full of politicians giving press conferences and impromptu interviews, with the five major TV networks and newspaper companies all swarming around to cover them. Then there are the comedy shows.
Even if you define variety shows as comedy shows, there's not much difference.
And then there are the formulaic dramas.
Japan is made up of a group of companies that occupy the top share of the world market in various fields.
These companies work hard day and night across the globe, and they are the core of the nation.
If you were to take it to the extreme, you could say that politics assists the activities of these companies and their various workers.
The idea of the government being above the people is putting the cart before the horse.
The police are necessary because it is human nature not to eliminate the existence of villains.
Essentially, they are a necessary evil.
However, if the police and prosecutors were to go in the direction of saying they are the ones who make the country, then it would be the end.
It is natural for a watchdog to bark, but it is impossible for them to sit in the middle of the alcove, thinking they are the master.
The same thing can be said about the country.
All the workers whose labor produces the food and profits for the people are the masters, and it would not be an exaggeration to call those who eat on the taxes paid by the workers watchdogs.
(The state is a watchdog to protect the workers of its own country) ... my musings this morning.
All they have are politicians' faces and comedy shows, and their husbands have no lives.
What are the masters doing?
What problems do they have?
What is the situation in foreign countries like right now?
What are other countries thinking?
Where are the business opportunities?
Etc.
There must be a considerable amount of material to broadcast.
Furthermore, the economy is a living thing that changes daily, so there must be an infinite amount of material to cover, so much so that it is impossible to keep up with making programs.
Furthermore, we must also talk about human philosophy and principles as the starting point of business.
Television and newspapers are supposed to be busy workplaces where there is no time to stand still.
If you can't see the boss at all, and all you see is the guard dog and the entertainment artists, it's only natural that you won't be able to see what needs to be done.
Even the workers and the elite doing their jobs while watching the big picture make up less than 10% of the workforce, and 90% can only see what's happening in their area.
The role of the media is to report on the state of affairs in Japan (covering all areas), the situation in other countries, the history of the policies that have been implemented, and the public sentiment that has arisen from this, etc.
Twenty years or more of showing only the faces of politicians and comedians have produced the Japan that existed before March 11th.
It is a Japan that has been mired in the first long-term deflation in the history of developed countries.
The only energetic people were the politicians, comedians, and TV people, and that's why.
If you can't establish yourself as honest and perceive the world correctly, your life will be like the demons and monsters lurking in the darkness.
All kinds of evil will creep in, and not only will you waste your one life, but in the end, there will be nothing but war.

The nuclear accident was a man-made disaster. 2011/3/25
All my readers should read the Asahi Weekly right now.
Suppose you are good with computers, unlike me.
In that case, you should start forming public opinion to get Kan Naoto to resign immediately, make all websites aware of the true nature of this outrageous man, and give him his marching orders.
My readers will know that I was the first person in Japan to point out that the inspection after the earthquake was outrageous and fatal.
I was also the first to write that this was no good after the Democratic Party of Japan election last September, and I was also the one who was 150% certain that the World Cup would never come to Japan.
Please read the "Asahi Weekly" on sale today, "The Inside Story of the 'Palace of Ruin' Bringing the People of Japan to Misery: The Fukushima Nuclear Accident is a 'Man-Made Disaster'!
It is no time to be complaining about difficulties.
The facts and the truth were as I had speculated.
I had named it the "Murderous Cabinet," which was precisely that.
There is no need to hold back any longer.
I, too, had been cruelly separated from my mother, whom I loved more than anyone.
That is why I refrained from speaking out, but that is not the point.
It is a terrible story.
It goes without saying who will take over the reins after that.
Moreover, even the editorial board members of the major newspapers, who have been complicit in this outrageous situation for the past two years, know about it.
They can't say anything.
Some of you also feel uncomfortable about being led around by the media.
Even I was led to believe that Takashi Tachibana was right in the uproar over Kakuei Tanaka thirty years ago.
The way the media leads us is genuinely frightening.
If you still feel that discomfort, please trust my inner eye.
As I have been saying,
90% of the workers will never lead the country astray.
It is always the 10% of the elite who lead it astray.
The elite are to blame for all the crimes they commit, whether they are conscious or unconscious of it.
My readers will understand what I have written many times.
However, it was this man, Naoto Kan, who, as I had speculated, led us into this situation.
As a mid-ranking member of the Democratic Party of Japan has said, he has "deserved to die a thousand deaths" because he is the kind of person I have been writing about.
The result of this is the current situation in Fukushima Prefecture.
But that's not all.
As you all know, tens of thousands of older adults, young and old, who have shown the world such decency have had to endure such difficult circumstances for over a week, and now for a second week, because of this man's very nature.
Now is not the time for sentimentality or sympathy.
Our hesitation will only bring about severe losses and damage to our country.
There was a press conference with the Prime Minister earlier, but why can't he give a speech that touches the people's hearts at a time like this?
He's not a statesman.
No, the fact is that the truth was perfectly verified by the Asahi Weekly today.
In the face of such facts, if he were to give a big speech, he would be an absolute fraud and a real villain, so there is no way he could say it.
He could not say it as someone who has continued to do such incompetent things.
Bureaucrats inevitably follow precedent or avoid responsibility.
The reasons for this are as stated above.
Politicians, of course, have experience, insight, a fixed opinion, and a philosophy.
They always protect the national interest, wealth, and people and die for the people, not themselves.
Buy and be done with it
2010/10/25 p114
As I pointed out in "The Turntable of Civilization," the Nikkei newspaper reports that foreign investors hold 30% of the total issued stock worth about 300 trillion yen.
That's 88 trillion yen.
It's only 88 trillion yen.
There is no need for this 30% to be subject to short selling and languish.
To put it in the way of a shōjo manga, "buy and be done with it."
There is no doubt that the slump in stock prices will end and that Japanese stocks will become "a shelter from the storm" (Shelter From The Storm by Bob Dylan), the complete opposite of the situation now.
Right now, they are treated as worthless paper, but they will become platinum paper worthy of the excellence of Japan and its large corporations in particular.
Every time they raise capital, they are subject to heavy short-selling by event funds, and the share price falls by 20% in a very short period of time.
On top of this, the amount of money they plan to raise is revised downward. This ridiculous situation, where they are continually being trampled on by foreign capital, will come to an end.
What remains is what I have mentioned many times before: the media must immediately change their idiotic, low-level ways of doing things.
The government and the private sector must collaborate to demonstrate the hard-working spirit of our nation's workers, who are among the most diligent and highly qualified in the world.
We must make the most of the unique characteristics of our country, which has some of the world's most intelligent people and the highest educational standards, and lead the world for another 170 years as a super economic power that complements the United States.
Immediately end the comic-like situation in which people like Takashi Tachibana, Hiroshi Hoshi, and the prosecutors somehow represent our country and continue to undermine national strength.
The prosecutors are simply one arm of the government and a group of people who are paid well with our taxes.
Our country comprises 90% of wonderful workers who are diligent, have a delicate sensibility, and are highly motivated to improve intellectually.
The 10% elite are there to serve this fantastic nation.
They use their superior intellect day and night, without thinking of themselves, to serve the people.
They must remember that they are paid over 10 million yen yearly for their work.
Those who have done remarkable work to benefit the national interest should be given even higher salaries than the high salaries paid to prosecutors now and made to serve the country for the rest of their lives.
There are bureaucrats (and prosecutors are also bureaucrats) who think about things like secret funds and the practice of bureaucrats taking cushy jobs in the private sector after retiring from the civil service.
They need to change the mindset of bureaucrats who only think about their own vested interests, claiming that they are following precedent.
I think that Japan, a country where the "turntable of civilization" has turned as if to mark the end of the 20th century, should do these things.
That is the role Japan should play in the world.
By moving just 88 trillion yen, we can create a capitalism that is not the egoism of 20th-century capitalism but one that greatly reduces the conflict with democracy in the 21st century.
If we can do this, Japan will be able to make up for the "lost 20 years of Japan" in the next 20 years.
The precious national wealth and personal assets, which are the fruits of the labor of our seniors who demonstrated their precious working spirit after the war and of people like me who have worked like horses for 40 years, are still worth over 1,400 trillion yen.
We still have 500 trillion yen left to spend.
Except for a few TV station employees who are just messing around, I am convinced that no one in our country doesn't like to work hard.
On the contrary, our country is overflowing with young people and citizens who can't wait to work.
That is the truth of Japan, a country I love dearly.
