Prevailing a "capital injection" illusion -- A drowning person will catch at a straw. -- May national collapse come?


As soon as a financial collapse comes over, and a panic of the capitalism breaks out, a great chorus calling for "capital injection " in the financial institutions bursts out now among the bourgeoisie, in particular, the bourgeoisie who should be acuused of "the self-responsibility". They say that it is needed, if necessary by force, to inject "capital" into financial capitals and to make them abundant in order to dissolve the crisis fundamentally, because the financial institutions are bogged down in consequence of falling into "a capital deficiency", so the simple purchase of the bad debts by the public funds as that of the U.S. government decided is insufficient and will never do anything, and there is no effect for a crisis deepening. What is "the capital injection" that the bourgeoisie are making a fuss on earth? And is it really effective and important for the current financial panic? Let's inspect it.

No.1079/ Oct.5, 2008 
The world panic is the necessity of contemporary capitalism -- Collapsing "financial" capitalism -- The US House of Representatives once rejected a national relief proposal.


A crisis of capitalism which is said as generating once in 100@years spreads widely and a financial crisis began to sweep over the world. Although it's called the one "from United States", it is not limited to the United States of course. The Bush Administration threw away instantly the old declaration, "We should not give aid to private companies", in the face of the deepening crisis. How no-principle, inconstant and irresponsible! And now it is busy to relief of private companies themselves. On the one hand, assistance was given to Bear and two mortgage loan providing companies were stored under the jurisdiction of the government to give the relief. But, on the other hand, to the breakdown of a large investment company, Riemann Brothers, it curtly@cut aids and threw it away, saying "a breakdown is its responsibility". However, for the big insurance company AIG which faced the breakdown just after that, the government made haste to give a massive relief under the reason that "it is too large to give it away and its influence might spread globally" and so on. And, after all, it is said that it is launching the relief of big financial capitals by injecting the extraordinary tax of a total of 75 trillion yen, and purchasing "bad loans" for them. Every big securities company, as well as Riemann Brothers, disappeared, by failing or selling itself to mega banks. In addition, huge investing companies like Goldman Sachs or Morgan Stanley also tries to increase their capital stock considerably, and are eager in crisis prevention. It seems that the "financial" capitalism which was just proud of prosperity is dissolving now. Where do the gfinancialh capitalism and the global capitalism try to go? Is there any help in its way sure enough?

The LDP presidential election as a farce -- It is already a "finished race." -- A monkey play of collusion with five guys


The presidential election by the five candidates of Liberal Democratic Party is in full swing, while it is being knocked as "a talent audition", "It is a feeling only to raise a hand by self-advertisement", "a farce", and so on. When gentle readers have got this "PETREL", this election will be just over, and the President of the LDP and the prime minister will be selected, and it will be finally in the political situation such as the general election. However, it will be extremely important to examine several aspects of this presidential election to survey the whereabouts of the general election or to investigate the course with which the worker fights by clarifying future political situations.
@The presidential election of the Liberal Democratic Party becomes the real "finished race" now, and besides, it is corrupted to an awfully insincere thing, a thing that is turned away not only by workers but also by the whole nation.

LDP's political power is disbanding -- Fukuda gave up his political power - Organizing a new Workers' Party is just pressing need.


@Fukuda expressed his resignation suddenly. The fact that Fukuda was also@forced to give up his political power after Ave in the same way has exposed the serious crisis of state and the LDP's political power, as@well as the demolition situation. Such situation tells us that LDP's politics and its power are tumbling down, and that the Bourgeois democracy and the parliamentary system itself deepen their inconsistency, and are lapsing into functional paralysis. It means that the Japanese capitalistic system as a whole will break away from a more or less stable time and rush into the time of violent shaking and disturbance. As a result, a class struggle and a political struggle will intensify unusually. After a little more than 60 years has passed from the WWII, the Japanese capitalism system reached a decisive turning point just now, finishing "relative" stable time.

Aso is a chorus leader of the "reform" abandonment. -- Reviving "destroy-nation" politics -- To a "dole-out" policy with election in mind


A new maneuver of Aso who held the power of the Liberal Democratic Party as the chief secretary has begun. He appears not only as a champion of nationalism, but also as a general manager of the corrupt Diet members, the Zoku Diet members, and tries to lead the general election to the victory by a "dole-out" policy (a vote-buying policy), and is intending to get the top of the power by the force. We must reveal a new maneuver of Aso and clarify the danger, hazardous property determinedly.

Fukuda reshuffled Cabinet embarking on a vote-catching policy without fiscal discipline -- They declared consumption tax increase. -- That means complete regression to the old Liberal Democratic Party.


Fukuda replaced 14 persons among 17 persons' cabinet members, and is going to prepare the organization towards this coming general election, pretending freshness. His "strategy" is that "reform" will be shelved, and will embark on financial expansion under the slogan of "business recovery", " life improvement" etc. He is trying to compensate for the balance of accounts by consumption tax increase. However, this poor reshuffled Cabinet makes a presentiment of the end of the Liberal Democratic Party Administration. If they believe that "national" support will be recovered by such policies and they are able to make the Liberal Democratic Party power continue, they do not understand at all the situation where they are placed. The thing that they could organize nothing without such pitiable "Cabinet" with facing the "since party-forming" crisis is teaching that this party is already corrupted, stupefied, and it must be defeated with no way to make.

"A biased education" is prevailing. -- They order to teach that Takeshima is "a Japanese teritory."-- Putting the past maneuver of imperialism on the shelf


The Fukuda Cabinet and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology wrote their opinion that Takeshima is a Japanese territory in "the commentary book" of the course of study of the junior high school virtually, and proposed the policy that teachers should teach to Japanese junior high school students clearly that "Takeshima is a Japanese territory". They started a new maneuver to goad nationalism for the floatage of the government which begins to be got rid of by the whole of "nation". (It is so called a "jingoism" request in a pinch.) They used a deceptive expression to mask their intention, but the aim of this policy is too clear. So the bold-faced excuse to have considered Korea just reveals their vulgar nature. We object to such a danger and harmful maneuver determinedly and appeal for the crush, and call to sweep away the Fukuda cabinet promptly, inheriting the reaction route of Koizumi and Abe, moving to the practice in sequence.

Every nation proved to be domestic-oriented - They indulged in much ado about nothing and with no "result" -- G8 just exposed their interests confrontation.


Although summit is held and "the leaders of eight major nations" in the world are meeting (it has not ended yet at this stage), that result seems to be clear from the beginning. That is, there is also no unification of purpose with a practical meaning, there will be also almost no substantial "result", and the big bargain sale of empty "determination" and "agreement" only on language will merely be performed. Such kind of meetings will finish with empty words because the rule and power of U.S. and old "superpowers" are now retreated and shaken, and it is because all the bourgeois states in the world, especially G8 and the "major states" (for example, China, India, etc.) which are not invited, are conducting themselves on their own national interests selfishly. Therefore, it is not surprising that they did not reach any fruitful agreement in summit about problems like global warming (discharge restriction problem), fighting with a price increase, etc. It is merely the maintenance of profits of the large capital of their own country and their national interest, the maintenance and strengthening of their political power that the "leaders" of each country gets interested.

World-wide inflation, the environmental disruption, povertyc --- The ruin of "the globalism" --- Only the poverty and the despair to the workers


From July 7, the Lake Toya-ko summit hosted by Japan is going to be held. Fukuda is fired up for bringing solutions, or at least for taking the hegemony to uncover the clue, to the some difficult problems that threaten human life and security, or even the survival now in this meeting where the influential national leaders in the world gather, and is maneuvering to make it the starting point of the falling "popularity" floatage by expending large sum of mony. However, the world-wide inflation is already becoming the reality, and "the hard problem" called the issue of global warming which Fukuda is absorbed in also cannot find the prospects of any proper solution. "The food problem" is the very same thing. The world economy is seem to face a decisive crisis of world-wide inflation, financial crisis and financial failure of each country, dollar collapse, and so on.

No.1071/ June.15, 2008 
The Summit is a mere talkative place -- Fukuda's intention is to put his political power into turnaround -- They won't be able to solve the global warming nor a food crisis.


It is becoming to be more and more clear that the bourgeois and their states in the world won't be able to resolve every critical problem in the modern era at all , even though they would come together and hold a food summit or an environmental summit , or an oil summit to cope with the rise of oil price and chat with each other endlessly. It is because, just as each bourgeois, bourgeois states also cannot but adhere to their own interests. And because one solution will run counter to another and be stuck in the mud. The typical example is that if they try to accelerate the use of biofuel, they will be contradictory to the food problem, and if they will give priority to the food problem, fighting with global warming will be becoming a secondary thing and have no real effects.

Japan also started to charge at "space expansion of armaments". --- The Liberal Democratic Party and the Democratic Party conspired together, and decided to launch a military satellite.


It is said that the government and ruling parties conspire with the Democratic Party and shift Japanese "space policy" drastically, that is to say, shape it from "pro-pacifist" policy to "pro-militarist" one in several years. We are talking about "the Space Fundamental Law" approved on this May 21. The Japanese bourgeois camp and the reactionary camp behaved as if "the pacifist Constitution" does not exist and made out of the powerful armed forces (the Self-Defense Force) while yelling "it is illogical if a country would be to die out on accont of a constitution". And now, they are reached to yell that Japan must arm itself with the latest weapons (their symbols are Aegis-equipped destroyers and latest fighters), and more with "aggressive" weapons (nuclear submarines and missiles), "the greatest defense is a preemptive attack". Missiles and the military use of "outer space", and moreover, nuclear weapons are the armaments that will be essential for them in the near future in order that Japan appears as a "first-class" nation, that is, a powerful imperialistic nation, and gain the hegemony again in the world.

Was it not a ggranny dumpingh system? -- The government and ruling parties defiantly declared if there was no money, there was nothing to do -- Trickery of the medical-care system for the old-old


The government and ruling parties were definitely defeated in the Yamaguchi by-election. They claimed that the defeat was due to the new system of medical care for elderly people, and not to the gasoline tax. While they needed such reason just because of the rash act, that is to say, re-raising of the gasoline tax (revival of the provisional tax rate) , nevertheless the Fukuda government seemed not to re-think, nor abolish the new medical-care system for the elderly which provoked people's wrath. In other words, they are thinking that the anger of laborers and senior citizens is not so big and will disappear soon. They are convinced that people's anger isn't fundamental, but because of inadequate explanation of the government and incomprehension of people. However, are such "rosy views" of Fukuda and others right sure enough?

The government and ruling parties are accountable for the price hike. -- Impeach the do-nothing Fukuda Cabinet! -- The inflation is a man-caused thing, not "a natural phenomenon."


Though the price hike momentum does not stop, but the government and ruling parties are not only going to take no step at all as if it is nothing to do with them, but rather accelerate it positively. The Minister Ota says a terrible thing as "(Though the prices are rising,) I think it is good that wage also rises and prices would become "good circulation", but it is still not so." (She does not understand what kind of controversial remarks she made.) In addition, Fukuda only murmurs that "it can't be helped as for what can't be helped" like someone else's problem. However, the price hike is not an unavoidable "natural phenomenon", but is the responsibility of nobody except the government, Liberal Democratic Party and Komei party. We impeach the government and ruling parties which not only take no step for price hike but also return the provisional tax rate and raise gas price, or lend their hands to the rise such as wheat prices, and we call just now to overthrow this government by the class and determined fight of the workers.

Is Fukuda trying to revive a provisional tax rate again, or to incorporate the funding sources for road into general revenue (is it possible for him)? What is his intention of posing as a performer of incorporating into general revenue, while aiming at the revival of provisional tax rate? Fukuda looks as if he were putting an end to the cooperating route with Ozawa, and giving up a "low profile" to dash forward, but is he able to find a way out with his new posture? In addition, what kind of view do the Democratic Party and Ozawa have? A deadlock of bourgeois policy seemed to reach the summit, and the collapse and fall down of the Liberal Democratic Party are accelerating further.

The gasoline price per liter was reduced by 25 yen on April 1. It is said that seventy percent of the public is in favor of it. Many bourgeois is welcoming it in terms of reducing transportation costs and lowering prices. But Fukuda asserted that he would "never give up" to re-raise it until the end of April and is showing unusual determination under the background of more than two-thirds majority in the House of Representatives. But he proposed that they would shift the earmarked revenue sources for road construction to the general budget and showed enthusiam for the "dialogue" with the Democratic Party at the end of March, though the position is now up in the air. The whole bourgeois politic reached a stalemate, and is already a "lame duck".

Wind up the Tokyo Metropolitan Bank right now and Ishihara needs to resign immediately! -- Tens of billion yen, or even hundreds of billion yen of taxes of Tokyoites are wasted. -- Just for the sake of Ishihra's self-ambition and power maintenance.


gThe Ishihara Bankh is driven into the situation where it cannot but fail, and must be dissolved and liquidated. However, Ishihara adheres to its continuation, and is requiring the Metropolitan Assembly to accept tens of billion yen of gadditional investmenth for relief, and the Liberal Democratic Party and the Komei Party are going to accept this proposal. Ishihara is emphasizing that if he liquidates it immediately now, then Tokyoites' burden will be 100 billion yen or more, but if he invests 40 billion yen and revives the Ishihara Bank, peoplefs burden will be decreased considerably, so additional invest is a best policy. However, he had insisted until now that investment would be recovered with profits, performance would be improved in two years and the additional investment would not be needed at all. He promised such things when the Tokyo governorsf election was held last year. But all of them turned out to be just lip comforts and false, and deteriorated the g woundsh. Ishihara's responsibility should be clarified just now, and this rotten power must be pulverized thoroughly.

Baby sparrows, move aside! Sir Horse passesh -- A warship to rush, disregarding "people" -- The world where "the military authorities" pervade is coming again


@An Aegis-equipped destroyer collided with a fishing boat, and two fishermen became missing. This incident has special significance in the meaning that revealed what the Self-Defense Force is already changing to an "armed faction" like prewar days than the accident itself. Or even if the Self-Defense Force does not yet appear as such a thing clearly, it has historic significance as the case that may be the turning point. The facts that an Aegis-equipped destroyer rushed arrogantly without minding the existence of fishing boats just like " Baby sparrows, move aside! Sir Horse passes", that the Defense ministry called and "debriefed" the chief navigator of the Aegis-equipped destroyer without any "permission" of the Maritime Safety Agency (to make a secret arrangement), and that Ishiba, the Minister for Defense, told a lie without any hesitation or changed testimony in sequence. (He seid that the Aegis-equipped destroyer confirmed the fishing boat two minutes before, but he changed it to 12 minutes before in a moment.) What stories to fool the people! After seeing such facts and what the Self-Defence Force is behaving as if they were making "civilian control" vague more and more, we can rightly confirm that it, namely the new military of Japan, is appearing now as an independent power group and armed group that is isolated from "the people", stands on the people, and subordinates and repress the people increasingly. We cannot but hit an alarm bell repeatedly.

Dig the grave of the new school curriculum guideline that just facilitates a decay of education -- it is an olio of gscholastic ability lineh and gnationalismh


A new school curriculum guideline was proposed, and the education in accordance with it is going to start from three years after. The government, Liberal Democratic Party, and reactionary forces who are stoked by gaining a change for the worse of Fundamental Law of Education, came out in a further attack. However, the more they move forward, the clearer the non-contents, stupidity, and reactionary nature of their idea, practice, or policy would be exposed, and they cannot but expand the failure. The draft of school curriculum guideline announced this time is like a symbol of their stupidity, and has revealed the self-contradiction, the fake, and the failure everywhere.

Fujiwara, stop the "Night Special Class"! -- Clear violation of the School Education Act -- May those in power be allowed to violate low and regulation?


We already protested twice again on this "Petrel" newspaper, but Fujiwara of the Wada junior high school forced the "Night Special Class" against the objection of many "thinking" people, labor union, workers, and the educational people concerned, and the Board of Education of the Tokyo metropolitan government and the Suginami county approved it quickly. They say the reason that the main constituent becomes a volunteer organization not the school, and it became clear to be a thing of "outside of the instructional activity of school", though it was said at first that the school hosted it. We impeach the indecent falsehood and deception of Fujiwara, Ishihara and the Board of Education, and demand to stop such an open offence and a folly promptly!

The confrontation of governing and opposition parties as a comedy in the "twisted National Diet" -- LDP politics which is controled by some lobbyist-politicians -- The Democratic Party has lapsed into no principle "populism."


The ordinary Diet session which held "the twist" started and the "fierce fight" of the governing and opposition parties started. We cannot declare now about whether it would lead to the resignation en masse of the Fukuda cabinet and a general election, and then become the signal of a political turbulence's beginning, or it would finish with one comedy. However, we confirm that the started political struggle is concerned with a very essential problem. Although it is made dwarfish and called "gasoline Diet" and so on, this problem is concerned with national "finances", in other words, a tax system and its usage which is supporting the national economical bottom, and therefore it is vital for a state. Any state could not exist even one day without an economic foundation. Therefore, for a class state, finance is essential problem, and it is also by no means accidental that many revolutions in history were entangled with financial matters and broke out. However, why is it not a general budget draft itself but the Special-Taxation-Measures-Law proposal reform bill and a deficit-covering bond bill? They have only a complementary and secondary meaning.

The international status of Japanese capitalism -- The per capita GDP of Japan is ranked at the 18th in the world. -- It missed forming "financial capitalism"


At the end of last year, the GDP of various countries in the world was announced, and seeing the numbers, a shock ran in the Japanese bourgeois camp. Because Japanese GDP shrinked for two years consecutively, and was not only reduced to half compared to 1994, but also the amount of money per-capita lowerd the order, and it retreated to the 18th. It was also a shock to have fallen below 10% of the world after an interval of 24 years; (it was almost 20% in the days of the bubble). Would Japan have become the world "decline country", a representative country letting the position and importance retrogress, at last? And what dose this fact mean for the future of the Japanese capitalism and for the Japanese working class?
