1. we need more 'honor suicides'
didnt I hear where a chinese toy maker had done this when it came out that his toys were covered in lead paint last year?
Actually that was what I consider to be an "Honor Execution". The Japanese are the only ones who do the ritual sepuuku as far as I know.
And suicide is viewed a bit differently nowadays in the Land of the Rising Prices.
Suicide is now more of a guilt trip than an honor thing, something the Japanese are experts at by the way. The message is "See what you guys made me do? See what I was forced to do? I had no alternative and you're at least partly to blame".
