In Japan, these CEO clowns whose screw-ups cause the stock to sink in price by 75%
fall on their swords. Over here, they walk away with $80 million.


Yeah, Whatta country! You gotta admit, the opportunities are MUCH greater here. I take it you rode the bursting bubble all the way down. Sorry about that.
