When I left my first job in Japan, one of my coworkers gave me a fairwell gift of a small set of toy cars with a jump ramp. Kenny is now playing with it. I noticed that the cars were abstracted models of real Japanese cars and looked up the "510 Bluebird" from Nissan.

What an insanely great looking car. Where are all the great designs, today?

Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, since it is the merger of state and corporate power.
