Thank you for the kind words.
I'm trying to stay away from dunking on the American/Japanese economy because its too easy.
We are all well aware of the challenges (some of which are fixable some of which are in various stages of malignant/metastatic cancers) in the US/Japan.
In general it behooves us to avoid getting sucked into confirmation biases that simply confirm priors and instead look for ways that things could turn out different to consensus/popular beliefs.
