    Also…loosen immigration laws?

    I know it’s a very closed off nation with deep cultural roots that is very weary of outsiders…

          (Although, I actually bet aliens are shit as well at the equivalent stage of development)

      I don’t mind finding work in Japan… …if it wasn’t so hostile to workers

      So far, Japan is near the bottom of my list for western countries to work at, and I would much rather find a job in Korea instead

                  Syntax would be more like sentence structure and order. Contractions are indeed grammar.

          Japan is an Eastern country. In fact, it’s the farthest East county possible.

          No love for New Zealand huh?

          Nobody takes that to be literally about geography anymore. Japan might be far away from Texas, but it’s politically a lot closer than Russia just a ferry ride away.

          Po-tay-to po-tah-to doesn’t really matter to distinguish between them when what I meant was clear, although I probably would’ve said first world if I was nitpicking my post before sending

      Absolutely! Even if it’s unlikely to happen, we shouldn’t let that distract us from what the best decisions would be.

      I know it’s a very closed off nation with deep cultural roots that is very weary of outsiders…

      Europe doesn’t get to use that excuse, and neither should they. I don’t care how different whale meat shashimi seems from foi gras, or bonsai from tulip arrangements.
