A few summers ago, my friend
invited me to be on a TV show. They wanted to hear the opinions of some
American people. Takajin asked me who I would vote for, Bush or Kerry?
I said that I would vote for "anybody but Bush!", so probably Kerry.
The reason is that I think the war in Iraq is a bad thing, and
Bush started it for the huge corporations, like the oil
companies. Big companies should not be able to control government
because big
companies will
do bad things for money, like start wars.
Oil is getting harder to find, and in the future there may be
more wars
about oil, or other natural resources. Japan should never take part in
such wars. Instead, Japan should lead the world in finding new ways of
making
energy and help other countries develop in a positive way. This will
promote peace for the whole world and for Japan too, because Japan is
connected to it. Japan is one of the best countries to do this because
it has the education,
technology, and most of all, the people
who love peace enough to try.
Even one person's life is more important than all the oil or
money won
for the big companies in a war. There must be a better way. Let's find
it!
