Who's to say I don't?

How about you?

Sounds too nebulous to you? Without discipline the Japanese would never have gotten anywhere after World War II. The Allied Occupation and Reconstruction period (1945-1952) where the Allies introduced sweeping political, military, social and economic reforms would have simply been frittered away. There could have been an insurgent uprising against the Allied occupiers... the very people who had bombed their cities back to the stone age (and not just Hiroshima and Nagasaki), the very people who were responsible for killing millions of their countrymen.

Yet the Japanese realized that the militarism which had made their country an Empire in the Pacific had also destroyed their country. They did not blame the Americans or other Allied nations for the destruction wrought upon their country. They looked at themselves and realized that embracing militarism had gotten them into the mess they were in and it would be up to them to get out of that mess that they themselves had created.

They turned their backs on their very painful recent past and got down to the task of rebuilding their country, even with the Allies gone. From a military-industrial complex they turned their swords (bayonets) into ploughshares in only a few years. From the first nation ever atom-bombed into submission, they clawed their way up to become the world's second- or third-largest economy. In only two generations.

It takes a lot of discipline as a people to do that.

I meant the post for Unsay Ngalan stating you said this but did not in his/her previous post.

Oh I said it alright. Quoting Bentulan. And in the need for safety nets, I totally agree with him.

America gusto naay slave, sauna pa. Maong uso sa ilaha ang slave smuggling sa mga africans, karon modern na kita nay slave nila ug ubang third world country. Silay nag control sa kuarta, so control sad tah!

[scriptologist]

Ang maau kitay control sa atong kuarta, himo ta'g ato, daghan kaau, mura'g si Abraham Lincoln sauna bah! Tan-awa dba gi assasinate. Ang administration/president mo contradict sa high government ( money makers ) tsugi, that's it.

Ah... So you feel that the poverty here in the Philippines is America's fault? Hmmmm... Can you be more specific (and more current), "scriptologist"?

[mannyamador]

Poverty existed here way before the US (or Spain) colonized the Philippines.

Also- from where I came from, I never laugh at people's ideas, concept or opinions.Limit your "ha,ha,ha" to your textmates.

umm.. bro kalma lang... dili man sad ni formal na debate.. donmt worry kung pormal pa ni dilki ko magbutang ug ingon ana.. prb is emo ra kaayo ang uban.. so ato butnagn ug "hahaha".. not really to insult your idea.. just an expression pare...

besides im not saying you have a narrow mind in general... just in this case... its nothing personal i just think your whole approach to the problem on poverty is set on the implemntation of hyperwage.. and you are not open to other ideas which could actually be useful... pero alam mo mas ok ka pa kesa kay mr.fool..

honestly he sometimes sound like fan club ni bentulan... hahahaha.. joke...
