Letter: Letter writer has no sympathy for Japan's economic crisis

Despite pleas for cooperation and fair trade, Japan has for many years been "sticking it" to the United States, the hand that feeds them, so to speak, in their import-export policies. Furthermore, Japan pretty much rubbed our faces in it using a system (capitalism) that we claim to have invented.

I for one am not disappointed in the concept of retribution while respectfully hoping that we are not due to pay "ours."
