(Twenty-five minutes too late...) No discussion of Japan's economy (whether it's government debt, inflation rates, recession, etc.) is complete without mentioning that the unemployment rate is 3.6%, the 2nd-lowest (behind South Korea) in the OECD.[0] So all the doom-and-gloom about Japan's future prospects and what they're doing and should be doing has to be balanced by the continued commitment by the successive Japanese governments to maintaining full employment.
