Interesting stuff about Japan - it's GDP kept growing for 6 years after the 80-s bubble popped - perhaps, due to all the government jobs they created. Then the Yen peaked when it started falling... Japan only had negative growth between 1997 and 2003, and it was a relatively minor fall of the GDP. US had growth this decade after the dot com bubble collapsed, but the real growth of GDP was just a whole lot slower than during the 90-s Message 25361062
