From time to time, the Daily Yomiuri runs its own recommendations on how to improve the country. This week they are running a seven-part series on the front page: Arresting Deflation.
The introductory paragraph of the first in the series contained some remarkable language–more fit for the editorial page than the front page. “With no one at the helm, Japan appears to be drifting,” “fresh and capable persons to carry out policies,” and my favorite “a crisis of pernicious deflation.”
The Daily Yomiuri is not too happy with the way the government is handling the latest economic downturn.
