It's high time people cut the crap with political correctness. People are afraid to admit that multiculturalism is a failure unless ALL of the people are one toward a SINGLE goal. With the politicians (of BOTH sides) in this country behaving as they have for decade after decade, we will never see that. They pit races, rich and poor, all AGAINST each other just to pad their pockets.
Black people have a higher crime rate, poverty rate, and most other bad statistics in this country because they have been fed A LOAD OF CRAP from the Democrat party, for the most part.
You need to teach a person to fish and not GIVE THEM FISH everyday to become dependent upon you for their survival.
I seriously feel badly for the black population in this country. Until they wake up and see what lies they have been fed by the Democrat party and the "progressives" over the last 40 years, they will never, ever climb out of the situation they are in now.
As for the Japanese people, they haven't been fed a load of crap because they haven't been subjected to the political whims of this country full of namby pambies for decades.
They have A SINGLE GOAL, and that is to survive, count on each other, and not rely on HANDOUTS from their government.
Thanks for sharing.
Got anything but your opinion.
I suppose, by your post, that we should have kept the black population in slavery a bit longer because it benefited them.
Racism is racism.
Thanks for starting my Saturday morning with that.
Know anything about Japan? Anything at all.
What you're going to find is that they will take care of their suffering by providing food, shelter and clothing to the victims.
That's so much more helpful than providing platitudes and epithets to those most severely affected.
I lived in Japan for 4 years and I visit for a couple weeks a quarter, the Japanese people would never tolerate what went on during hurricane Katrina and nobody in Japan would act like the animals that were running the streets of New Orleans after the storm, I was there when it happened so I know what went on there as well.
Only if you consider having the 3rd largest economy in the world and an unemployment rate of about 4 percent a failure...Yes, Japan does have an extremely high level of public debt, a situation that hasn't been helped by an aging population supported by a shrinking workforce. But unlike the US, most of that debt is owned by domestic investors.
According to your link Libya, Azerbaijan, and Nigeria have some of the lowest levels of public debt--they must be rousing success stories...
In all fairness, looting is wrong. But the people in the lower photograph - with the raft - had bottled and canned beverages (needed for sustenance). Are tennis shoes and tv's needed for sustenance? What do you do with the tv when there is no electricity?
5 of their nuclear reactors have been deemed to be in emergency state, one is already leaking. Did they ever consider these effects? Japan might not have a future.
This is serious - if that thing blows, it is going to affect the whole world. It's bad enough the Japanese are in danger of a nuclear disaster, on top of the quake and tsunami, but that fallout is going to be headed here to the U.S. - reaching the west coast first.
I was laughing more at the fact the previous commenter said Japan thinks about the future and plan things, when in fact it looks like the opposite in terms of where they placed those nuculear plants...

It seems that most of the Japanese were evaquated before the Tsunami.... In hurricane katrina and the Haiti quack, people "rode out" the hurricane(and quake in Haiti's case).... Hence anarchy and social disorder ensued..
