This is just dumping a lot or money in to an industy for "make work" jobs. Convince me why they need 100 little satellite - is one supposed to be in sync. orbit over every city in Japan? Seems to me that one or two of these, or a little larger, would do the job.

Well, at least Japan is ONLY wasting %150 bilion is this current "stimulus" package.

I think we lost count already of the trillions the us is throwing at everything imaginable -- and some that are not even imaginable!
