Also…loosen immigration laws?

I know it’s a very closed off nation with deep cultural roots that is very weary of outsiders…

Love all races. Except the human race. Terrible, awful people they are.

Now this is a racist idea I can agree with.

I don’t mind finding work in Japan… …if it wasn’t so hostile to workers

So far, Japan is near the bottom of my list for western countries to work at, and I would much rather find a job in Korea instead

Japan is an Eastern country. In fact, it’s the farthest East county possible.

I think the words you were looking for were “first world countries”.

Nobody takes that to be literally about geography anymore. Japan might be far away from Texas, but it’s politically a lot closer than Russia just a ferry ride away.

Europe doesn’t get to use that excuse, and neither should they. I don’t care how different whale meat shashimi seems from foi gras, or bonsai from tulip arrangements.

Absolutely! Even if it’s unlikely to happen, we shouldn’t let that distract us from what the best decisions would be.
