昨日の衆院総選挙が開票され、ついに民主に政権交代に。しかし、よくもまぁ 半世紀も自民党という一つの政党が政権を握っていたと思う。これは本当に不思議なほどで 且つ enough is enough という感じだった。今回の政権交代で、日本の腐敗・荒廃した政治は これから本当に変わってくれることを望む。
因みに US では Democrat と Republican で下記のような感じで 2つの政党が政権交代をしていたが、日本の政権交代は、54 年ぶりとは遅すぎ…。日本社会、そして日本の企業も、もういい加減に変わらないと。
Congrats, Democratic Party of Japan! And get going!
