RE: Japan

How about (not an original idea, of course) deliberate inflation? Just pass out the Yen and change trade policies so as to encourage them to spend it on imported goods--like, maybe, buy up all the lumber in Oregon and build bigger and nicer houses. And pay people to build those houses. I know there's not much land, but one can always build upwards.

Maybe they should just print Yen and buy gold with it. They need to import more, and gold would be the easiest thing to ship in.

Since no one else has a solution I just thought I would make one up!
