Suicides in Japan certain to top 30,000 for 10th straight year › Japan Today: Japan News
Close to 90 people kill themselves daily in Japan. They can't adapt to a sick society; "normal" people can. Japan, moreover, is an intensely crowded country. It is the size of Montana where 75% of the landmass is uninhabitable because of mountains. That means you have to cram 127 million two legged residents into the rest of the land--and don't forget you can't live on a rice paddy, golf course, or a shopping mall. Add the flatland, processed feed, debt slavery, dead end existence most look forward to after graduating (or dropping out) from school and you're looking at a social disaster in the making. You might think the nightly news would hype this crisis like it does with certain other hot issues. Along with the news, financial news, sports, and weather forecasts, we could have suicide watches. Full Moon tonight folks, be extra wary for those who contemplate calling it a day prematurely; pay special attention to those on Prozac, Ritalin, Luvox, Zoloft and other SSRIs. But let's not get too distracted with non-issues like human suffering in the hell of samsara (and the usurious antecedents thereof) because plant food kills. So cut down a tree and bury it.
