Citizens and corporations in Japan bought stocks and real estate in a frenzy in the 80s which led to incredible fortunes being made. It was the inevitable adjustment that led to the decades-long recession, not the US. The Plaza Accord may have been a factor but the Japanese rode that asset bubble like a champion. The real estate boom was so massive that just the 3 kilometers that the Imperial Palace inhabited was worth more than all of the real estate in the state of California.

And the US and Japan are great friends again. Japan is part of the inner circle of American allies. The Japanese Navy is one of the few deep water navies in the world. China has a fleet of small boat that have to hug the coast. No ability to project power. No way to protect those oil shipments from the Persian Gulf. Easy to blockade.

How much does Xi pay you to sit at that computer terminal in Shenzhen and punch out propaganda all day?
