Japan has a lot of things going for it that America doesn't. They manufacture their own goods. Ok a lot are made in China, but they do still make a lot of things in Japan. As the article states, Japanese banks have their shit together and are currently shopping the world for bargains. Japan's debt is internal vs America's which is divided between internal and external. And finally, Japanese chicks are fuckin smokin and fit.
Shit if Japan pimped out their top models they could pay off the national debt! Ask the Saudis.
