I've been to Tokyo. It looks at least 50 years ahead of the US. We have too many lies, including the GDP. Technology products and cars are much more advanced in Japan. The only thing that's really expensive is housing. 150 mln. people are crowding essentially one tiny island. That's the population of Russia. -g- I've been to Korea too. That country lags US badly, but it's less weird than Japan -g- The Japanese are leading in vitually every technology, and are closing on a lot of new ones. Their government also spends tons of money on technology research. They still lack computer leadership, but even that is now changing... They already lead in broadband. Of course, scientists knew that for some time... China is ramping its own technology efforts. Jim Rogers is absolutely right about Asia - it's only a matter of time before all our leadership is gone.
