This may be a sore topic for some, but the Japanese have just lost all industry. This is a moment for entreprenuers everywhere (hopefully the US) to thrive and win in the open global economy. What industries do the Japanese own and operate that are now possible to be established on US soil?

Come on man, really? I fail to see how anyone can "benefit" from what happened there the other day.

The O.P. speaks the truth whether its moral or not. The U.S. isn't exactly known for being miss goodie two shoes. I bet they try to bank off of this after they help Japan to make it look like they are the good guys, then ease their way into trying to benefit off the situation.

Honestly man, this is pathetic.

And NEVER discount the Japanese. Not only are they intelligent, they have very strong souls. They'll get through this.

The American spirit lies in its ability to adapt. I know their are industries that have been greatly effected by this tragedy. Time to bring some jobs back home!

If they have a product that only they can produce because they have the infrastructure in place. These arguments are now void and it is time to start thinking. Manufacturing plants can be built in less time in the US and we need to start doing it now, in the wake of tragedy.

I can send you a box of tissues via USPS but im sure i would need to send them internationally to you, joke.

I'm far from crying about this man, I just think this is building our economy in the wrong way. Things like this make us scum as humans. IMO

i agree with the two posters under you... insensitive, to say the least

however, you're free to go ahead, research, & answer your OWN question... & satisfy, what appears to be, your "entrepeneurial", (mercenary) tendencies...

i would hope most people here have more respect for the japanese, than rubbing their hands in anticipation of what you suggest right now

sheesh


have a heart

Besides, and nobody take this the wrong way, but they bounced to the top after an atomic bomb was dropped on them, and I think they can recover from a tsunami.

I hope the Japanese do get through this and I know America will offer lots of help. I am not being insensitive, I am providing an answer to the poor US economy and debt and offering a solution to fixing it.

Do you think they would offer us the same courtesy? Absolutely not, we live in a polarized world, get to grips with reality and make a win for yourself. I get sick at how America sends money everywhere else in the world while our debt accumulates and the world scorns us.

F you japan and your efficient mfg plants and lack of respect for workers rights. Time to own up to your poor treatment of laborers and answer for yourselves.

what the us should do is nuke the hell out of japan, flatten it, reshape the landscape and let the japanese rebuild it all again, better, smaller and much more user friendly.

but this is a funny thread, to the OP:

it's nice you have that go getter mentality, you think exactly like the people who are robbing and exploring you now as we speak.



never let a good crisis go to waste

HELL YEAH
