"and lighting upon him"
SOLUTIONS & DISPOSAL
Jesus Christ presented a solution which is called love to those who are cruelly being disposed of by society, a nation, and the world.
Even today, millions of people per day are cruelly being disposed of in the world by their neighbors and their government.
SECTION I: Crisis Over?
Now nobody says in the U.S. and Japan that we are in the largest economic crisis in these 100 years, any more.
However we have been in there:
----------
Global electricity demand declined in 2009 for the first time since the end of World War II according to OECD estimates. Electricity demand experienced a constant climb over the second half of the 20th century through the oil crises of the 1970s, the Black Monday crash of 1987, and on through the dot-com bubble bursting at the turn of the millennium as development countered all downward forces. The credit crunch of 2008 though, has resulted in a drop of as much as 1.6% based on OECD figures derived from the IMF’s latest GDP growth forecast for 2009.

----------
The above figure tells that mankind now uses twice more electricity than in 1985, the great year for Japan though forced to face the Plaza Accord.
Without electricity, Americans today must be still hunting thousands of whales in the Pacific Ocean to take out whale oil from dead bodies of the marine mammals for lamps like the era before the great inventor Thomas Edison.
However, it is interesting that the global use of electricity has been so increasing constantly over time.
And, electricity means energy released to the air or the surrounding atmosphere not only from generators and power facilities but also from equipment that uses electric power. Accordingly, it is inevitable that the temperature is influenced to an upward trend, though the earth's cooling potential must surpass it with a great margin. Yet, electricity itself can be a stronger factor for some global warming around 2000 than derivative CO2.
Anyway, it looks like that as President Mr. Barack Obama and Prime Minister Mr. Yukio Hatoytama do not express a sense of crisis in these days, they are losing wider support from citizens.
(The Japanese media report recently that an approval rate for the Japanese Prime Minister has fallen around 30%...)
SECTION II: BRICs?
In Brazil, gangsters are harassing citizens as much as in Mexico. But, Japanese polices can arrest gangsters only because they possess hand guns, since such possession itself is illegal.
In Russia, there are no laws to regulate and prevent insider transactions in the stock market. But, Japan has strict regulations as much as the U.S. has.
In India, a kind of social segregation and discrimination is widely practiced based on the caste system like in the U.S. when no African Americans have a voting right. But, Japan is even studying whether it should give a local voting right to some foreign residents (however it is too early to implement the idea to allow for wider political activities in Japan by Chinese and Koreans who refuse to become a naturalized citizen of Japan).
In China, its prime minister attends a press conference only once a year. But, the Japanese prime minister answers questions from media reporters everyday which is nationwide televised.
Japan has been the largest and best ally to the U.S. not only because it is the second largest and strongest economic power in the world.
Japan understands the American democracy based on American Christianity more than BRICs do.
Americans should not try to shake hands with Mexican drug dealers or the like in BRICs but enhance, enrich, and expand the U.S.-Japan friendly and security relationships.
SECTION III: Economics?
Once even very rich people got poor to be one of ordinary people.
However after the Great Depression and especially after WWII, it has become very rare that any rich men truly fell down and out as long as their wealth is protected by established political systems, invested into proper industrial activities, and operated in the financial sector and the money market.
Their only concern is bankruptcy of a nation, since a government can tax them and even fail in avoid inflation, risking the net value of their wealth.
John Maynard Keynes must have simply saved the British Empire or the British Empire dominant world from bankruptcy, while he studied Marxism very much and understood a great mission of saving the poor. Yet, he did not call the rich into sacrifice for the poor.
Economists today have been learning economics which has developed with the above background.
Today's economics is not designed to make the poor rich.
However, the only sane end of the economics is to make the poor rich.
Ask economists whether they are studying economics to make the poor rich. They will be surely puzzled, since they are brainwashed by the underlying aim of the modern economics.
Economics is regarded as effective if it can find a way to avoid tax increase on the rich and a bankruptcy of a nation which can harm rich men's living. Today's economics never helps the poor, since it is designed to serve the rich.
Conversely, as Mr. Barack Obama was not an economist, he was elected as President of the U.S.

Jesus Christ taught that money cannot be a solution, though it makes people falsely believe that money has fixed a problem.
However, as s spiritual level of "money users" gets lower, the money users falsely truly believe that money has fixed a problem, since their mind gets so degraded.
However "love users" for solution find providence in the proceeding of the matter.
This love includes even forgiveness to an enemy, if you cannot easily bless your enemy.

What I want to emphasis is that somebody needs EEE Reporter so as to preserve sanity, since insanity is what the Devil utilizes to fight the God.)
Mat 3:16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
Mat 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
