(Tokyo in May)"Thy Faith Hath Made Thee Whole"
In China, CNN International can be only viewed in hotels serving foreign guests and foreign embassies.
And Chinese coming back home from a trip to North Korea often say, "Oh, now I'm back in the country of freedom!"
But, it is rare to hear a Japanese coming back home from a trip to America saying, "Oh, now I'm back in the country of equality!"
Anyway, GM and Toyota have been too long and too much company-profit oriented to a degree nullifying a traditional economic theory; China and North Korea have been too long and too much elite oriented to a degree nullifying a traditional political and diplomatic theory.
What is extremely poor or rich must be handled following special philosophy.
In the case of the Roman Empire, history needed the Christianity.
SECTION I: Detroit
A Japanese newspaper reporter recently visited Detroit.
He found some broken and desolate streets and facilities, like in the case of New York, while hearing talks on a heavily alarming number of murder cases and other violent crimes.
Yet, people he met in Detroit said, "We are enjoying our life. There are so many crimes and financial problems, but we are enjoying life more than that."
The Japanese reporter looked around to see people in Detroit actually look like enjoying life in their homes, on the streets, and in open facilities, concluding that most people in Detroit are living happy lives.

America's Most Murderous Cities
David M. Ewalt, 11.08.07, 6:00 PM ET
Top on our list? Detroit. The Motor City experienced 418 cases of murder and non-negligent manslaughter in 2006. That's 47.3 murders per every 100,000 residents. Detroit also ranked high for violent crime (No. 2), robbery (No. 4) and forcible rape (No. 12).
To put it in perspective: Detroit's murder rate is more than 8% higher than the country's second most murderous city, Baltimore, and eight times that of the least murderous metro. More people were murdered in Detroit than in San Antonio, San Diego, Dallas and San Jose combined--and each one of those cities has a bigger population than Detroit.

If a rational man thinks he cannot be happy by killing others, he would not kill anybody.
Or, has any murderer got happy by killing others in Detroit, Baltimore, San Antonio, San Diego, Dallas, and San Jose?
Anyway, Jesus Christ said that a happy man does not need the God.
Be poor, unhappy, and saved in Detroit.

Mar 5:25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,
Mar 5:26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,
Mar 5:27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.
Mar 5:28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.
Mar 5:29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.
Mar 5:30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?
Mar 5:31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
Mar 5:32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.
Mar 5:33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
Mar 5:34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.
