Politics in Japan

Today, I want to talk about Japanese Prime minister. Usually, I am not interested in politics, but now, the political situation in Japan is so bad.
I have been in America for 3 weeks, so I can’t watch TV news, but thanks to the development of the internet, I can read the Japanese news even from America.
Last week, Japanese Prime Minister Fukuda suddenly resigned his job. It is said that he implied to quit around April. He had been Prime Minister less than one year, and in this period, many injustices of politicians were being found out. The gas price rose up, the problems of pensions, etc.. The government had lots of problems. Therefore, Japanese people always complain to the government even though those problems were not because of the prime minister. Most of those problems are caused long time ago. Of course the Prime Minister is the job to take full responsibility for everything happened in the country, but it means that no matter who takes the place of prime minister, nothing would be changed, and we can prospect that the next prime minister would end up with the same result.
I hope someday, one great person like superman(batman spiderman!?) shows up and save the country. However, we have to change our attitude toward government, because the politicians are also parts of the nation. Everyone in the country might make mistakes, so we should not blame them for their faults. We have to think together, support each other, and be unite as one to make our country peace.

Sunny, this is so interesting. I agree that politicians make many mistakes. They have a difficult job! But it is also scary for the people whose government seems to be failing. We experience this a lot in the U.S.
