What if Japan had become the #1 economic superpower in the 80s

They were dollars to donuts ahead of us. If that's not wining the race I don't know what is.
A shakedown breaks the system and creates a dishonorable, communist-tier disrespect for capitalism as a whole.
We did more than just bar them from economic superiority, we betrayed the system and destroyed capitalism as a result.

Today I will remind them

It's really amusing how USA fucked Japan's economy just USA to stay an economic superpower and 30 years later USA is being overtaken by China

I agree but those small bits of plastic are hopefully going to be taken care of by either makers or plastic eating microbes whereas rusted out 4x4 shitbuckets are an absolute menace to the environment and future car production as a result.
I live in the pigwest full of these nigger tier trucks and it's a tragedy seeing the wastefulness of such wonderful pieces of technology going down the drain when we could have had kei-cars everywhere being fixed up and used for very long periods of time, preserving useful pieces of tech and increasing the longevity of personal vehicle ownership as well as the overall production of such machines.
Gas would be cheaper, cars would be cheaper, etc.

The system was rigged from the start. Capitalism is a meme.

It's the best system known to mankind and personally I feel that the excess production is underrated.
The sheer amount of "junk" people throw out can make a man extremely materially wealthy if he has the storage to hoard resources to which he personally holds value.
For example, perusing faceberg marketblatt has provided me with FREE furniture, building materials, weights, etc.
Another reason why it's great is that it breeds creativity, drive, competition, passion.
Condensed workout machinery like this is the result of capitalism and it's wonderful.
Makers are the end goal of capitalism and it's such an amazing concept that it actually eliminates the need for currency. That's the level of abstract-next level thinking humanity needs to reach utopia.
Just feels like the kikes are gonna deprive us of it like they deprived Japan of their rightful place at the top of the technological food chain

when we could have had kei-cars everywhere being fixed up and used for very long periods of time, preserving useful pieces of tech and increasing the longevity of personal vehicle ownership as well as the overall production of such machines.

Mate do you understand than the japs basically throw their cars away after like 5-10 years at most? Most of them get offloaded into the Aus/NZ market and they're basically new.

The japanese government makes it insanely expensive to keep "older" cars, and they also want to keep people buying new ones etc

So whist i'm a huge fan of jap cars, the way japan treats them is again just another horrid example of how disposable and consumerist they are in mindset and policy.

I'm just referring to imports and our culture of having oversized vehicles which could be producing 10 c90s instead. We could have had private nature highways for these babies using all the resources we have for those oversized hunks of junk.
I'm thinking that Japan's policies are probably due to Jews as well so I'm not going to start blaming them for that.
Just driving at the fact that they engineer efficient, long lasting vehicles, or at least they used to, and those had the potential to be extremely beneficial to production and the use of motor vehicles to improve our daily lives

Japan's economic boom was the US shifting industry to them on purpose to avoid the commies taking over. It was artificial us intervention.

They aren’t even close to industrial might or resources.

What even is the logic of economytards? You think if you win the most GDP then God hands you a magic wand and lets you dictate terms to the world?

Their banking institutions would have collapsed under the weight of all the bad/junk credit they were issuing to prop up the 'economic miracle'. Economic depression was always their fate. Western powers just helped them get there because we were tired of being fucked in trade. China is using the same strategy but is also trying to become a reserve currency so they can export their internal debt.

For all the "free trade/market" principles that the US claims to stand for, it really is ironic that they kneecapped Japan because they were competent enough to make good products.

No it was people buying Sony Walkmans and Honda Civics because they fucking MOG
I almost bought a 1995 Honda Civic with low miles for $1000 and remembered that it could have stayed like that for the last 40 years

I wouldn't be able to get my daily sausage and egg mcmuffins and would likely be forced into buying some chink slop which I hate.

They couldn't. Japan was good at catch-up development, but it was unable to reform its institutions to move to innovative development when it entered the frontier. If they had succeeded, they would have continued to grow, just like Korea, which just succeeded. Is Korea a great power now? No, it's just a rich and high-tech country.

opposite of soul

Japan never had an economy. They can only function if they can export to the US.
This is true of all East Asians actually.
They are culturally inclined to produce more than they consume, and they panic and stop spending if they can't do that. Which would mean even less consumption and even more panic, repeat.
They can only function if there is foreign demand, if there is a foreign market they can flood and steal. They cannot run a balanced economy on their own.

So yeah, they were never a real economic superpower. They simply subsidized themselves to take business from the US, and they started stagnating when he US no longer allowed that.

Everybody bought Japanese products, even Euros. They make superior electronics and cars. Cope.
Preserving the planet is SOVLFVL as fuck. Are you high?

Kinosis.

Slants always had a problem with losing the war. They tried to economically buy out/destroy the US, in the '80's and ended up poisoning their own culture. Sucks to be them...

Burning your resources as quickly as possible means your winning

You don't grasp large numbers mentally very well, do you?

Japan's LDP government was created by the CIA (Nobusuke Kishi was a CIA asset). Their economic miracle was in the 60s before they had any industry to note, almost 1 in 3 yen was due to foreign investments and there was heavy involvement from slush funds cycling gold into Japan because they had a USD peg a privilege no other country had. Their entire economic system was created by Edwards Deming and were so dependent on US resources that their entire economy collapsed because of the Nixon Shock. There has not been a single competitive east Asian economy until the UK dropped off CNC machines in Japan because the west was completely run by unions at the time. Reagan wanted to scare unions into complicity by using the heavily privatized 1980s Japan as a model, in reality their worker productivity was less than 1/3rd of the US, the only thing keeping it alive was automation. Automation was refused steadfastly in the west because it threatened unions and as a response labor movements started making moves to import more workers and increase regulations. Economic nationalism has always been a lie, no one asked for the Internet it was a DARPA project that was forced onto the public to disrupt telecom monopolies. What we're seeing today is the US' version of perestroika where they need to invent enemies to force reform.

spending less than you make is not bad
its the path to prosperity

Their loss is my gain

I'm already self sustaining and off-grid. Only slightly worried about gasoline and cars becoming unavailable due to amerimutt hijacking of the Japanese economy and the Schumann Resonance.

Japanese appear to be right wing environmentalists

tokyo had a (literal) communist mayor during the 1970s. he was the one responsible for cleaning up the city.

Yeah but it's their religion
Shinto is engrained into their S O V L
Why does Anon Babble fucking hate Japan so much?
It's almost comical

I'm already self sustaining

You're full of shit

Nice, Germany is the other country who has to export or die. I hear all the news now dire the German economy is going while you still have an export surplus like you've always had. The news say you're even shutting down factories, you'd rather do that than to consume what you produce.

But even if only philosophically, you surely understand everything produced has to be consumed, and everything consumed has to be produced. It only works if there is a balance.
Your export surplus is only possible if another country goes into debt for you. This model is easy, but unsustainable. This is why Trump is mad at you.

Anon, I—

in america people take out mortgages to store entire housefuls of cheap plastic shit

you're not off-grid if you're posting on Anon Babble

rural Japan is lovely

Its can also be very creepy due abandoned buildings and villages that you can find in more secluded areas.

Shits straight out of Silent Hill with abandoned buildings with broken windows in mountainous regions.

Japan's ecconomy was so bigger than the rest of East Asia until the 90s
Even if the US didn't do anything, Japan would have struggled as other Asian countries became like Japan and be direct competitors

Off-grid refers to the power grid numnuts

What if Japan had become the #1 economic superpower in the 80s

It didn't though...

Shits straight out of Silent Hill with abandoned buildings with broken windows in mountainous regions.

That's mostly youtube porn. The same as abandoned places in fukushima. Most people don't go there so it's pretty irrelevant.

They got forced into the Plaza Accord by the judeo-American empire. End of story.

Japanese believe they are haunted which makes them extra spooky

Efficiency

Lack of wastefulness

Are you retarded? They "work" 10 hour days but spend 4 of it doing nothing but are forced there because they can't leave before their boss.
They continued to use floppy disks until recently because the boss liked floppies and you can't tell your boss he's wrong.
Their entire run up during the 80s was just getting high off massive amounts of credit and foreign money.

I'm only referring to the efficiency of their products.
German-level engineering for a reasonable price?
Kino.

You can see those in Minakami if you drive up the mountains. Granted its not 100% abandoned since theres still some people there besides the abandoned buildings but still.

They continued to use floppy disks until recently because the boss liked floppies

They all have the same boss?

Japanese girls are #1 in my heart

imperial nips would have invaded your country,gifted you slavery and raped your women like they did with gooks,chinks and ASEA.

They would have divided in half, half goes to them half goes to Germany, instead they realized kikes are gonna corrupt the planet so they went into space.
I'd say we're worse off without Japanese occupation at this point.

The boomers would have retired and given the jobs to more lax gen Xers

Japanese and German engineering differ. Japanese products are simple and reliable. German ones are overenginered and most of the times not fun unlike american products

I see, well at least the one thing they all have in common is that they are/were built to last. Planned obsoletion is a chink/kike ploy to undermine capitalism and replace it with communism
