Rengo joins the pack

Oddly, the head of the Rengo labor federation has called for PM Kan to resign. Why? Because we have a political impasse. But why call on the good guy to resign? Why not call on the nay-sayers to quit saying nay and to start cooperating with the reconstruction effort?

Even more oddly, the Rengo chief said this impasse will continue until Kan announces a firm date for his retirement. Which is ridiculous. Suppose Kan said “Fine, I will resign next March 11.” Would the LDP and the LDPists in the DPJ be happy? Of course not. They would say that, having set a firm date, Kan is a lame duck and there is no point in working with him. The impasse would continue.

Suppose Kan said “Fine, I will resign right now. My bags are packed. I’m on my way out.” Would a new team be ready to step in and hit the ground running? Of course not. The LDP’s Tanigaki declared in the Diet that it would be easy to put a new government together if Kan stepped down. But he has done a world-class walk-back on that, and for Kan to resign at this point would simply start a prolonged period of political in-fighting and deal-making that would leave no time at all for actually governing. Which is fine with the bureaucrats, since they would step into that vacuum and resume their de facto control of government policy.

For some reason, many politicians seem to think that “politics” consists entirely of getting elected and then jockeying for power positions – with little or not thought to what they were elected to do with that power. I do not think this is unique to Japan, but that does not make it any more acceptable here.
