If Koizumi enacts the package without sacrificing all of its major planks, the path toward sweeping economic reform may have finally begun. If, however, the formidable phalanx of Koizumi's opponents blocks the proposals?or waters them down to the point of irrelevance?then the Prime Minister's credibility as a reformer, if not his career, is likely finished...
