I guess comparisons can be made between Japan and the United Kingdom. Both are constitutional monarchies, both have a Parliament form of government. Both have fairly elaborate social network built into their government.

The Japanese are far more efficient and culturally they put far more into accomplishment than making money for the sake of making money.
