Trey, Perhaps the following will increase the pressure upon, and possibly jeopardize the position of, the LDP party. Just speculation. Japan is a much different culture than our own. Difficult to analyze from afar. Regards, Tundra Japanese Poll Shows 60% of Workers Unhappy, Japan Times Says Tokyo, Oct. 31 (Bloomberg) -- A recent survey released by the Japanese Trade Union Confederation, the nation's largest labor group, showed that 60 percent of union members said they were dissatisfied with their lives, the Japan Times reported. That's the first time since the confederation started the biannual survey in 1990 that dissatisfied workers outnumbered satisfied ones, an indication that anxiety over job security is increasing amid the recession. Of about 25,000 employees who responded to the survey, taken in June, only 39.9 percent said they were satisfied or fairly satisfied with their lives, the report said. Japanese manufacturers cut employee overtime hours by 17.0 percent in September as falling profits and restructuring forced them to reduce labor costs.
