(Yesterday, in the evening, at holy, though very common, rice fields 25 miles far from the Tokyo Bay)CLEAR NATIONAL DEBTS
For ordinary American citizens and the majority of Americans, more fearful than terror attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon or Wall Street financial crises is no pension, no insurance, and no medicare to be fully paid back or provided by the U.S. Government, public entities, or private businesses.

U.S. welfare ship rapidly taking on water

...
In 2007, employer-provided insurance covered 177 million Americans, 59.4 percent of the population; in 1999, coverage was 63.9 percent.
...
Social Security and Medicare - programs for the elderly - represented the lion's share: $1 trillion in 2008.
...
The Congressional Budget Office projects the federal debt to double as a share of the economy (gross domestic product) to 82 percent of GDP by 2019...

If the Government stopped to provide public services to the people due to national bankruptcy, revolution would occur in the U.S.
If the Government said that it is all responsible for an individual to be rich enough or make money enough to live on one's own assets without relying on any public services as the Government has gone bankrupt, revolution would occur in the U.S.
Conversely, the Government would decrease the level of public services as low as possible, or to the extent that no revolution occurs, since the Government is about to go bankrupt.
But, at a few steps before the possible American political revolution, poor Americans elected Mr. Barack Obama as U.S. President in 2008.
If President Mr. Barack Obama should fail in meeting this critical request, what will occur in the U.S. in one step closer to the possible American political revolution?
Will rich, very rich, and super-rich American people start to offer their personal assets to clear national debts and help those desperate poor Americans?
Or will they get prepared to stand against the possible revolution to disperse revolting poor Americans from American streets?
Anyway, I am afraid that the situation might settle with 200 million rich Americans who eat beefsteak everyday and 100 million poor Americans who cannot eat beefsteak any day. Democracy will sustain this state of skewed balance.
No more meaning in the division between Republicans and Democrats, since all the population will be divided into 200 million rich Americans who eat beefsteak everyday and 100 million poor Americans who cannot eat beefsteak any day in the state of skewed equilibrium.

The Japanese Ministry of Finance presents data impossible to overlook.

In Japan, a revolutionary incident occurred in politics after all in 2001.
Mr. Junichiro Koizumi was elected due to vast support from the people as prime minister, defeating old-fashioned-elite-supported late ex-prime minister Ryutaro Hashimoto in the 2001 presidential election of the Liberal Democratic Party, since LDP is the largest ruling party in the parliament (called Diet).
In a sense, Mr. Koizumi can be rather regarded as having been a kind of Japanese Obama in 2001, since he actually introduced many dramatic changes into Japan, though some criticize that former Prime Minister Mr. Koizumi has been too pro-America.
However, no politicians have been able to enjoy the popularity comparable with Mr. Koizumi even after Mr. Koizumi spontaneously stepped down from the premiership in 2006.
Succeeding Prime Minister Mr. Shinzo Abe fell in illness; Succeeding Prime Minister Mr. Yasuo Fukuda abandoned his initiative to hold a general election; and incumbent Prime Minister Mr. Taro Aso has even lost some able and competent political allies from his Cabinet due to various unlucky incidents, thus losing his own popularity.
So, in the coming Japanese general election to be held by October at the latest, we might see what will happen in the situation the people are looking for somebody or something new to avoid national bankruptcy and maintain a level of social welfare.
Anyway, as we already had a Japanese Obama in 2001, Japanese voters will probably vote in more futuristic manner in the coming election for Lower House members of the Diet.
And now, those who predict that the LDP will lose power and the labor-union-associated Democratic Party of Japan will take the helm of state account for 90% of all the professional journalists and commentators.
So, it looks as if only incumbent Prime Minister Mr. Taro Aso of the LDP were in the position to bring a miracle in Japan nowadays.

Dan 6:24 And the king commanded, and they brought those men which had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and brake all their bones in pieces or ever they came at the bottom of the den.
