Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

I’m more Christian than these people and I’m an atheist.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

“But what about the lurkers?”

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

I was confident that someone would point it out and thought why not me.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Trump’s legal defense is going to be a dumpster fire inside a clown car on a derailing train.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

The media handbook says “controversial” is the most negative description that can be used for a Republican.

This blog will pay for itself.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

Let’s show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

That Used To Be an Outrage

Adding to what DougJ said, I’m old enough that I remember it was an outrage when you called American workers lazy:

Japanese Prime Minister Kiichi Miyazawa`s remarks Monday that American workers lack drive and a strong work ethic not only elevated the war of words between the world`s two biggest economic rivals, they highlighted a growing gap in perception that afflicts U.S.-Japanese diplomatic relations.

Speaking during a parliamentary discussion of the declining American economy, Miyazawa said:

“I have long felt that (Americans) lack a work ethic . . . to live by the sweat of their brow.

“Because so many American university graduates were recruited into Wall Street, the number of engineers in charge of developing goods has declined.“ The Bush administration and several American politicians known for their tough stance against Japan responded quickly and forcefully.

“These kinds of comments are probably helpful in the sense of stirring the rages in all of us,“ said White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater.

“Beyond that, I would say that the American work force is second to none, that the American work ethic is legendary and has promoted the greatest prosperity in the world and throughout the world, including countries like Japan.“

House Majority Leader Richard Gephardt (D-Mo.) was more emphatic in his denunciation of the Japanese leader`s remarks, calling them an “ignorant expression of Japanese racism. . . . Americans work hard every day, and our productivity is higher than Japan`s.“

When the angry reaction began rolling in from Washington, Japan`s Foreign Ministry quickly issued a statement saying that Miyazawa “has no intention whatsoever of criticizing American workers“ and that the term “work ethic“ was used only to explain the “philosophy of work.“

Fitzwater said Washington regarded that as an “apology.“ President Bush said Miyazawa had “gone out of his way to make clear he is not denouncing all American workers.“

That was 1992, which in America is like ancient history. Interesting that what used to be called an insult is now the received view among our Galtian overlords.

Looks like Miyazawa wasn’t wrong about his Wall Street v. engineers remarks, either, was he?

    Miyazawa only got in hot water for saying this because he was a foreigner criticizing the US. At the time I recall this was treated with outright hostility and calls for punishing the Japanese for their insolence. After all, we MADE them after WWII, how DARE they be such ingrates!

    Though I curious as to which Galtian overlords denounce the earning of an MBA over an engineering degree. That’s like the first step for making it in their kingdom I thought.

    @DougJ®: Funny enough, that was exactly what came to my mind.

    Here’s a reminder.

    Japanese React Angrily to Hollings Remark
    __
    The New York Times | March 05, 1992
    __
    TOKYO, March 4 — A reference by Senator Ernest F. Hollings to the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki drew angry responses today from survivors of the American wartime attacks. But Japanese officials sought to play down the controversy.
    __
    The remarks by Mr. Hollings, Democrat of South Carolina, came amid Japanese-American tension that has been inflamed by long-term trade problems and by recent comments by Japanese officials that many Americans are lazy and lack a work ethic.
    __
    On Monday, Mr. Hollings told workers in Hartsville, S.C., that they “should draw a mushroom cloud and put underneath it, ‘Made in America by lazy and illiterate workers and tested in Japan.’ ” He called his remark a joke and said he intended it as criticism of the Japanese comments about American workers.
    __
    On Tuesday, Mr. Hollings expressed anger that the remark had turned into a controversy, telling a reporter outside the Senate chamber that he was glad he made the comment.
    __
    In Japan, most newspapers tonight carried reports of Mr. Hollings’ remarks. An article in Yomiuri, the largest-circulation paper, carried the headline: “Is the U.S. Countering the ‘Laziness Remark’ With an Atomic Bomb!? Senator Makes an Irrelevant Statement.”
    __
    A leader of a group of survivors of the 1945 atomic bombings had harsher words.
    __
    “This kind of remark cannot be permissible to the people of a nation that suffered the world’s first atomic bombing,” said Yoshio Saito, acting director of the Japan Confederation of Atomic- and Hydrogen-Bomb Sufferers. “The use of a mushroom cloud and making bashing comments are two issues of quite different dimension.”

    Of course, if you really wanted to respond callously to Hollings and his audience, you could have cynically mocked that view by pointing out that there were only a small number of workers who built the atomic bombs as “tested” in Japan, so maybe all the other American workers not so carefully selected were the lazy and illiterate ones.

    [Or you could have specified that it was primarily the dumbass rednecks of the South who were the laziest and least work-ethic-possessing of the country, sitting around eating their lard-burgers and handling their snakes and keeping their Klan outfits nicely pressed in the closet.

    I mean, if you just wanted to be mean and didn’t care about how sensible your comments were.]

    This was after Reagan got paid for delivering a speech in Japan and after all that Japan bashing. Remember when they used to take sledgehammers to Japanese cars?
    Of course, George H.W. Bush wasn’t known to work all that hard. He was best suited to being a social butterfly. And throwing up in the Japanese Prime Minister’s lap.
    When the Righties call workers lazy they are sitting on their rear ends while they do so.

    I think it was always been fashionable among the right-wing to call workers lazy. What has changed is that attitudes that used to be confined to the far-right fringe have now metastasized to the supposed mainstream

    In the long term this may be a good thing as it will end up promoting class consciousness and worker resentment. After all, we can’t all be talentless hacks living off of wingnut welfare.

    Because so many American university graduates were recruited into Wall Street, the number of engineers in charge of developing goods has declined.

    You mean, actually MAKE things, instead of engaging in glorfied three card monty games?

    Of course, in order to MAKE things, you have to pay people to do it, and that’s the last thing our parasite overclass wants to do. Because, as you know, if you pay them something, the Galtian overlords will have a minscule amount less, which would cause them unbearable pain.

    This is a wonderful example of how right-wing politicians (and Hollings was a classic, conservative “Southern Democrat and Miyazawa was a PM in the long time ruling, very conservative, oxymoronically named “Liberal Democratic” Pary in Japan, and this was still in the bubble of renewed Japanesee Nationalism that occurred in the late eighties as the Soviet threat disappeared and before the consequences of the lost decade was fully felt. And of course it is a matter of blaming the “furner” for your problems, a tool that is beloved by the right everywhere (and a reminder that we humans are cussedly stupid across many language and cultural barriers.)

    Dean Baker has a column in “the Guardian” about how are awesome elite is celebrating the awesomeness of Alan Greenspan, despithe his and their just awesome spectacular failures in making decisions about the economy these last fifteen years, and that these elite decisions, made the Galtian Overlords Greenspan, Bernanke, Paulson, Rove, Summers, and Rubin, might have more to dow with our lousy economy than those “lazy, illiterate, hick workers.”

    But I really do reserve most of my antipathy for the Democrats. THEY NEED TO BE THERE. This is their base. Why the fuck isn’t Nancy Pelosi there? Minority leader? Hello?

    American workers aren’t lazy, American companies are lazy and obsessed with the next quarter’s P&L. Instead of spending the R&D bucks to figure out how to make things that are so good that everyone, everywhere, wants them and then paying Americans decent wages to make the stuff they took another path. They spent their energies substituting plastic for metal and then cardboard for plastic. Once that was done they shipped the manufacturing overseas to maximize profit.

    There are countries that pay good wages and benefits while maintaining a strong export-driven economy. Ours is not one of them and we keep electing pols from the same two parties that made it that way. Imagine the joy on both sides of the aisle when they realized that no matter how hard they fuck us they’ll still get our votes.

    Not totally on topic, but how have we not yet realized that GOP screeching is a sunk cost of any and all actions/inactions? This defensive crouch bullshit seriously gets fucking old.

    @Southern Beale:
    Because our media is owned by a mega-corporation oligarchy. Media coverage of a bunch of doofuses in tri-corner hats protesting paying taxes two f***ing months after a Democrat becomes President is mandatory and patriotic, while covering ten thousand union employees protesting their governor’s campaign to slash their benefits is rabble-rousing. I mean, how can they gut everyone’s benefits without gutting the unions first?

    As for the lack of backing by our fearless Democrats, that’s because they are a bunch of inept pansies who couldn’t politic their way out of a paper bag. They’re so spineless (how spineless are they), they couldn’t pass one single piece of liberal legislation in two years of the Presidency and a majority in both houses.

    As an Illinoisan, I couldn’t believe what WI did to themselves last November. Voted out one of the strongest senators in recent history in Feingold to install Senator Teabag, and vote in Walker for Gov, who promised to do this very thing during the campaign. Something about a whirlwind and reaping. Problem is, we’ll all be reaping it.

    But obviously, union protests aren’t important. What’s important that a dozen teabaggers stood in front of a state courthouse to demand Obama’s impeachment. That shows you what REAL America wants.

    @Morbo: I went to college as an adult for my computer science degree. Most other adult college attendees were MBA candidates. The best I can figure is people who go directly to business aren’t interested in ANYTHING other than squeezing profit out of someone else for their own pockets. The business itself doesn’t matter. I could be anything. In fact, we just spent a decade having MBAs make money by exchanging pieces of paper unrelated to the underlying business. Utterly useless.

    ETA: These adult MBA people were pieces of work, too. They approached college as consumers, not students. They would routinely make stupid demands. They wanted to get out of requirements. MBAs didn’t want to take the math classes that were required. I suppose there really isn’t any risk of devaluing that degree…

    We are cautioned (often by those Wall St. types) that the US must never allow itself to become “another Japan”. Having been there recently, this is what being “like Japan” would mean: no poverty, affordable, universal healthcare, great infrastructure, no violent crime, lower unemployment, fantastic mass transport, reverence for the aged, etc.
