〓However, an economy that shuns expensive normal goods in favor of circulating low-cost, low-quality inferior goods (cheap copies) will face chronic deflation and recession, leading to eventual impoverishment.
〓This is the very mechanism that caused the economic self-destruction of the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe during the Cold War.
〓Therefore, as Yukichi Fukuzawa pointed out at the beginning of *An Encouragement of Learning*, equality under a liberal bourgeois constitution in a modern nation-state does not mean an excessively formal equality that overrates the "Gon-suke apprentices" (the ignorant proletariat or "corporate drones").
〓Rather, it refers to a society where spiritual freedom and private property rights are strictly protected, allowing the bourgeoisie to fully exercise leadership and fostering a climate of active innovation.
〓In pre-war Japan, a system of division of labor was established among tenant farmers under the judgment of the landlords, who comprised the bourgeoisie.
〓Conversely, after the war—when tenant farmers became small landowners through land reform—neighborhood associations were formed, and landlords and former tenants were made to join them under the pretext of formal equality.
〓The result, however, was a succession of former tenants who ruined their lives to become yakuza underlings, and others who became Communist Party members criticising the very modern civil society where the bourgeoisie should lead.
〓To prevent the further decline of the Japanese economy—which is trapped in a communist-style industrial structure led by manufacturers of inferior goods thriving on recession while local security worsens—we must return to the origins of the modern nation-state (the liberal bourgeois constitution) and restore the regional system of division of labor.
