This is really interesting. Whether you think the current economic crisis has hit bottom or just begun this article on the effects its having in Japan certainly looks like a distinctly 21st century way of living through 'economic depression'. In stead of lining up factories and soup kitchens people live in internet cafe's and look for cheap noodles.
