Dunno how Japanese consumers are supposed to confident. The economic data is bad and if it ever gets better the administration is telling them inflation is just a round the cornet, and isn't that great!

Sheesh.

Oh, yeah, and there's a sales tax hike coming up!

I've trashed the economy.

I've trashed the currency.

I want higher inflation.

And I'm raising taxes.

What is it with you people? Get happier!
