Evil Companies
There are bad companies in Japan, too.
One consumer finance company hired a young man who graduated from a university.
He was taught to bring extreme pressure on a client who has stopped paying back. So, he obeyed the company rule so rigorously. And in once case he virtually drove a client to committing a suicide. Then, to him going into shock, his boss said, "Three times!" The boss said coolly, "Till you experience a suicide of a client three times, you cannot become a full-fledged member in this industry."
Later, one of his clients ran away. So, the young member of the personal finance company applied extreme pressure on the wife of his client. As he so frequently made phone calls and visited her home, a tragedy occurred one day. He visited her home as usual but she spoke only through intercom. During an outwardly normal conversation, she suddenly stopped talking, and then a big sound was heard through the interphone. The next moment, the door of the house was flung open; she came out, dashing with a kitchen knife in the hand. The young man from the shark business was almost stabbed on his chest. He took to flight into the street. She was chasing him, grabbing the knife. He hid at a corner. She ran to the middle of people walking in a town. She was captured and sent to a hospital eventually. The young man and the consumer lending company made her go mad finally.
But, as she tried to stab him, it could be regarded as an attempt of murder. So, negotiations were conducted between the company and the farther of the poor mad woman whose husband defaulted on his debts and fled somewhere, resulting in no lawsuit but refund by the father.
Then, the young man quit the job. He became depressed. He left Tokyo for his home town. And, now he is engaged in a more quiet job.
It is said that there are two million heavily-indebted persons in Japan.
Japan needs to change its economic system like all the other countries in the world.

Today, almost 48,000 foreigners live in Japan while receiving social aid or welfare payment as they don't find jobs or cannot work. Among them, 30,000 are South/North Korean residents in Japan.
In this context, Japan might be still a haven in the world, though.
