In English Today

Want to keep my journal in English today.

Since I watched TV about Olympic, I've been thinking about tax system in Japan. This is the thing;

TV showed why Japanese athletes are receiving more medals than recent olympic games and what are previously predicted. As a background of this, there is a national owned sports gym that was built in 2001, using 27 billion yen, about 270 million dollars. The gym is for olympic nominees to practice. There, those nominated athletes use gymnasitc apparatus that would be used at Athens.
The TV program ended itself by saysing, due to using familiar materials at Athens, Japanese athletes showed their skills with less tense and linked to getting more medals ever.

I am not saying that Japanese getting more medals is not happy event, but spending such a lot of tax for athletes to get medals is not really essential for the nation. I do not believe receiving world awareness at Olympic shows nation's power or other authorities.

Moreover, if athletes get rewards for medals, that is, Japanese government spends tax to specific individulals to be rewarded.

Well, today's journal covered very deep staff. But, I believe this is one of the important issue to talk about!!
