How would you have voted? Japan

[F. Joe Haydn]

I don't know much about Japanese politics, but I'm pretty sure that the Democratic Party people who were in charge before Abe were basically pursuing austerity policies that resulted in disaster for the Japanese economy. Abe was elected on a platform of Abenomics, basically expansionary economic policy, and while he didn't implement the policies as much as he should have, I certainly don't blame the people of Japan for giving him a chance. Of course, Abe's party is also far worse on social issues and much more nationalistic than the Democrats, so I may have been forced to vote Communist.
