Japan has long been one of the most sexist nations on earth, but the women are gaining. Bt becoming educated. Adn they are still the thrid largest economy on earth. Yes, I should have included both China and India. But I remember a professor friend once saying to me: "every time I see a japanese student in my class I knew that was an A. But the primary point I am trying to make is how important education is. The other day I watched an interview with Palin. She said in no uncertain terms that eductated people are "elitists" and should be listenting to the common sense Americans (paraphrased). Interpreted, eduction is not important and can actually make people less intelligent about policy. That is nuts. And I see that theme running all through our cultrue and politics. E.g. how often do you ever see politicians even recognizing there is such a thing as social science. We are at the very early stages of being civilized human beings and our social sciences are still in full blown evolution, still we do know stuff and applying our social science knowledge to running our governements is imporant.
