"A system of capitalism presumes sound money, not fiat money manipulated by a central bank. Capitalism cherishes voluntary contracts and interest rates that are determined by savings, not credit creation by a central bank."

A very humble, generous CEO (from Japan)

    i was just talking about this video with my mom, she’s been with JAL for 40 years working her way up from a tickets sales girl to a pretty high level executive (sorry to brag, but thats no small feat for a woman at a japanese company!). She says that whenever the VPs she knows fly on JAL, they clean the bathrooms themselves :)
    But, its hard to make a comparison of japanese companies to american ones… the whole cultural and work ethic is different. You just cant get away with extravagant executive salaries in a society that values homogeneity so much, especially if your company is losing money – everyone goes down with the ship in japan, shame/honor are kind of a huge deal (hence, seppuku!). This all sounds like a great thing, but workers generally have to be treated fairly well there because theyre expected to devote their whole lives to their company.
