Japan has a socialist government. It was instituted by General McArthur and Harry Truman. Japan is 33 trillion in debt. Their creedo was full employment and full production after their defeat. It mattered not if there was a market for their goods.

Banks were forced to make loans to insolvent companies.

Socialism and Communism always fail but,there is no other system that allows criminals can ply their trade.

you have a strange interpretation of capitalism if you think Japan is socialist.

Sure, but which is more socialist: Japan or the USA? America has long been known as the land of unwitting socialists.
Topic: it's right there in the national mission statement. Discuss amongst yourselves.
