Japanese Just In Time Production Philosophy Widens Disaster To Global Scale

This article's subject sounds like it has a distinct anti-Japanese slant.

Actually they pioneered the system, so it is accurate. Everything goes exceptionally well until you have a disruption, then the house of cards falls down.

Hmmm. Somehow I don't see headlines saying "American invention of mass-produced automobiles destroying the planet." I'm arguing that the headline has an anti-Japanese slant, and you're arguing that "Jap-bashing" is justified when you're right. Same thing, just a different perspective.

Speaking only from my own, completely biased perspective, I offer to you that this may be a "bad" time to express such sentiments, in light of recent catastrophes in Asia.

So the flaw in the system is that it doesn't take into account a massive earthquake and Tsunami that killed tens of thousands of people? Are you fucking serious? Could you imagine if the Japanese complained of 9/11 causing them to lose jobs because the US wasn't buying as many cars? Douchebagery at it's finest 009.

Oh and the "disaster" is the loss of life and destruction....not the slowdown in production in the US.

oh oh whine at it again. Still looking for the magic in your stories, that's why he posts bait like this. Wonder what the title would be if the situation was reverse.
