I think of the "smaller" companies Miele could be very high up but the first places would be probably all something with cars or big machines haha.

I wonder what companies Americans would be proud of.

Personally, I'd vote for Wegman's.

Don't underestimate the popularity of Deutsche Post DHL (the world's largest courier company), Adidas, Puma, Bosch and others.

Well, Deutsche Post is huge and all but I don't know many who like them even if I had never problems with them. Adidas would be probably also in the list but not in front of the car manufacturers. Bosch is obvious and I think also Lufthansa even if they had some problems last month

But I have no clue what most woman would say so that the list could be also different to what i think. I think Henkel would be also in the list..

The research was conducted among 1000 men and women between 20 and 69 years old, with the additional condition that those between 20 and 59 years old had to be employed. The 200 companies included in the survey had over 250 billion yen in yearly sales and more than 5,000 employees.

This survey loses all creditability now. They only include "employed" people, because majority of those unemployed are living out in the streets in boxes. Some of those people were laid off enmasse by some of these Japanese corporations. If the survey included the unemployed, many of those companies wouldn't even been on the list.

Please do go on how much impact these 40 people would've had on this poll.

I'll even ignore the fact that there is no way to "outvote" a company with that kind of list.

Sorry. You confused me. What 40 people?

The survey doesn't include the unemployed - which makes up a hefty sum of individuals in Japan. 

Outvoting a company? I never made that claim... Did you quote the wrong person? I don't think you were trying to quote me.

Japan has an unemployment rate of 4% which in an unbiased sample of 1000 people would be about 40. Those would hardly have an impact on the overall results of this poll.

And how would it be then that some of these companies wouldn't be on the list? Certainly the top 10 in this list wouldn't change one bit.

I'm not proud of any company as long as I didn't help to get that company where it is with my own ideas or work. Is something wrong with me?


I'm with you. I live in America and I know pretty much everyone here only cares for themselves when it comes to business....

LOL Individualism is a big thing in America and social welfare isn't really, though social welfare exists it is loathed by a crowd. The Japanese praise the companies that represent their country well enough. They have a lot of national pride and for good reason. I think the baby boomer generation was the last generation in America to have been brought up with national pride when it comes to goods and services in the country even though its free market. Then again the quality of American made products was much higher back then.
