Right - I was wondering why you only focused on racism as the reason for Japan's paralysis. It reminded me of a recent conversation I had with someone who simply couldn't fathom why every country didn't have the same immigration policy as his. Of course, there are a huge number of solutions to Japan's problems - if we only allow our imaginations free reign. Failing a North Korean invasion, I favor a cull of retired people as the solution.
