I can remember watching new reports of people smashing up Japanese electronics in front of the White House. And people were really concerned about all the US property being bought up by the Japanese.

It was the beginning of America's decline everyone thought.

It didn't turn out that way at all.

Bingo. Japan also was (and is) infamous for long working hours, but turns out that just hides a lot of inefficiency.

then IMF and World Bank popped Japan's credit bubble. Same shit happening to China but because of their authoritarian rule, they will let it go to shit before they lose control.

there's already social unrest happening as China is getting its ass beat in the trade war

I.. uh.. congratulations on the pregnancy?
