(Look Up! Watch Down!! Follow Captain Tokyo!!....!)Poor Voters & Rich Leaders
The number of poor voters is usually more than the number of rich voters.
But, leaders of any political party are rich and not poor at all.
Even leaders of a socialist party or a communist party are rich.
Ultimately, there will be a conflict of interest between poor voters and leaders of a socialist party or a communist party, if such a party wins power.
That is why politics cannot be a final means for salvation of the poor.
But, political power can regulate money flow and banking operation, since politics is above economics. With this notion, we may be allowed to discuss politics and its reality.
SECTION I: Truth of Regime Change in Japan
To your surprise, the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ, shown by the red line below) had been an opposition party till the Lower House election conducted in the summer of 2009, though it is a younger party than the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP, shown by the green line below).
In general, the DPJ is liberal while the LDP is conservative, though there is a variety of members in each major party of Japan.
Numbers of Votes in the Proportional-Representation Constituencies
Year/Election...++...LDP...++....DPJ
----------------------------------------
2003/L.H.....20,660,185...++....22,095,636
2004/U.H.....16,797,686...++....21,137,457
2005/L.H.....25,887,798...++....21,036,425
2007/U.H.....16,544,671...++....23,256,247
2009/L.H.....18,810,217...++....29,844,799
----------------------------------------
In the Lower House election on August 30, 2009, the LDP lost power for the first time in half a century as a result of a general election.
Now, the 2010 summer Upper House election is expected to show another turn of the political trend in Japan. However, the Lower House holds a priority right in selecting a prime minister in the National Diet, the bicameral congress of Japan.
Power is now in the hand of DPJ, namely its head of P.M. Mr. Yukio Hatoyama and its Secretary-General Mr. Ichiro Ozawa.
Any Japanese journalists who do not criticize the two for the only reason that they have power are regarded as receiving money or benefits from the Hatoyama Cabinet or the DPJ. Monitoring and checking power is one of key missions of journalism and the media.
You have to criticize the DPJ with power just like the LDP with power before 2009-8-30.
In addition, it is very natural that the Japanese voters chose the DPJ last year, since the LDP could not improve economy since early 1990's.
(Most voters thought the LDP leaders became fools due to their long and old system, but they now suspect that P.M. Mr. Hatoyama and his virtual boss Mr. Ozawa are as problematic as those LDP leaders, due to their long and old riches or privileges.)
SECTION II: ECONOMICS & LOVE TO NEIGHBORS
The modern economics is based on an assumption that no one has love to his/her neighbours.
It also helps rich people neglect a need for exercising love to their neighbours, since the modern economics calls rich people "capital."
"Capital" does not need to love its neighbours. But, rich men have to, if they are Christians.
If all the rich men in the world start to help poor neighbors, every economic problem will be solved.
In other word, if all the capital in the world starts to help poor neighbors, every economic problem will be solved.
Got it!?! What is based on people's bad faith cannot be a science; economics is not a science.
Anyway, why does economics have to define capital as having the sole purpose of increasing its value neglecting poor neighbors?

A jet plane from Dubai to a certain city of Karnataka state, India, crashed today, taking so many lives.
What for did it happen? Another warning to Dubai and India? If so, Indian people should not travel to Dubai.
If you read the Bibles or any Holy Books, you would find that Dubai is not holy at all.
If you have peaceful and prosperous Iraq and Iran, even Indian people do not need Dubai at all.
Anyway, Saturday is going to be closed here around Tokyo.

Where are you taking a walk tomorrow, since it will be not hot in Tokyo?)
Joh 5:21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
Joh 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
Joh 5:23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
