I live in America. My family and friends are primarily Americans or are in the process of becoming Americans. I want them to have satisfying employment. That is more important than long-term personal gains. I’ve got mine and I want them to get theirs. Gilt-edged bonds make lousy winding sheets. (This is a projected rationale and not personal behavior. Helping China out of the Mao morass was worth outside investment to dramatically improve the well-being of 1.4B people, for example. Chinese are people too.) Haven’t seen many bread lines in Tokyo. Mrs. Watanabe seems pretty happy.
