Hi everyone, <\/p>\n

Sorry for the late entry. As I told you in my last comment, I hurt my back at the weekend, and I haven’t really been able to do much since then. It’s not too bad now, but sitting for long periods really hurts, so I wasn’t able to do a new entry. I’ll do the next one next week. In the meantime, here is some feedback on your comments on the last topic. <\/p>\n

I don\u2019t really think the results mean that people agree with your policies.
\nNice sentence.
\n<\/strong>
\nMy third request is \u201cDon\u2019t raise the consumption tax now!\u201d
\nThe latest news stories are saying that he is thinking of deferring it.
\n<\/strong>
\nI know it sounds cliche,
\n“I know it sounds cliched” or “I know it sounds like a cliche.”
\n<\/strong>
\nI heard that radiation safety standards for food have been relaxed, but I don\u2019t think most Japanese people realize that.
\nNice sentence.
\n<\/strong>
\nSome mother friends of mine
\nSome friends of mine who have children
\n<\/strong>
\nWe don\u2019t want to spend money for that at all and actually we\u2019d like to spend it for a family trip
\nspend money on<\/em> …
\n<\/strong>
\nWhy is education fee in Japan so expensive?
\nWhy is education in Japan so expensive?
\n<\/strong>
\nyou should spend more budget for working generation and children
\nyou should spend more of the budget on people of working age and children
\n<\/strong>
\nAbenomics is the effective plan
\nAbenomics is an effective plan
\n<\/strong>
\nI really hope you will make right choices and make Japan the better place.
\n… and make Japan a better place.
\n<\/strong>
\nSettling the problem is beyond just Toden\u2019s control, and I really think the government needs to take leadership actions.
\nThe problem is clearly too big for Toden to control, and I really think the government needs to show some leadership.
\n<\/strong>
\nHowever, the fact that \u65e5\u672c\u907a\u65cf\u4f1a(war-bereaved associaotion) is a huge source of votes for the LDP seems to make the issue even worse and complicated.
\nAs always, the problem is vested interests and lobby groups. This happens in every country, unfortunately, but it seems to be particularly bad in Japan.
\n<\/strong>
\nthis is just my imagination, though\u2026
\nthis is just my guess \/ impression, though…
\n<\/strong>
\npeople are spending more and more money for their children.
\npeople are spending more and more money on<\/em> their children.
\n<\/strong>
\nI think I had to say \u201chigher birth rate\u201d instead of \u201clarger birth rate.\u201d
\nI think I should have said “higher birth rate” instead of “larger birth rate.”
\n<\/strong>
\nAnyway, it is a consolation that it didn\u2019t happen when you were away from home!
\nThat’s very true!
\n<\/strong>
\nThat’s it for today. Please feel free to write comments on anything that interests you this week, and I will do a new entry on Monday. <\/p>\n

By the way, we are having the \u5730\u93ae\u796d for the new house on Saturday, and if everything goes okay with the bank, the building will start next week. <\/p>\n

Hope you are all having a great week and not suffering too much in the heat. <\/p>\n
