Japan has approximately the same area as our state of Montana, with a population almost 3.5 times that of California. About 75% of Japan is mountainous, so they only have about 36,500 sq mi of flatlands into which they have stuffed over 127 million people, so that's somewhere in the vicinity of 3500 people per sq mile.

To that add a mega earthquake, a powerful tsunami, and nuclear meltdowns, plus millions trapped in the cities, destroyed roads, buried victims, not enough equipment, not enough water, not enough food, and there are actually people who have the UNMITIGATED GALL to say Japan isn't doing enough???

AND to say that the U.S. could do better?

This must be coming from the fantasyland members of society who think if they were in the same situation, they would just pick up their families, stuff them in the 4WD, and trundle out of town, right?

It must be really, really dark and warm where some of these people have their heads!
