If they are really independent, they ought to have a military. Japan's pacifist constitution declares not to hold any weapons except for pure defence purposes. I think this has been worked well in the process of reconstruction after the war. They could only concentrate on economy. The problem of Japan's having a military is they might start using it for real invasion. America was really afaid of Japan's remilitalising after the war. Therefore America shackled Japan by imposing this article. It might be natural for Japan to dissolve this shackle some day, though, the problem is Japan is not matured enough to have a military yet. This country needs more fundamental change other than military, which involves the change of spiritual structure from the bottom of their heart. Unless doing so, they will follow the similar way again.
