Japan births fall to record low as population crisis deepens

[Lonj]

If the country wasn’t so xenophobic, they’d come up with a more friendly foreign policy. Japan is one of the harder nations to visit or take up residency if you aren’t a Japanese national. Fix that, become more inviting and it’ll have a very positive affect. Albeit possibly compromising traditions to some degree. But what’s more important?

Traditions. Traditions are the backbone of a culture. You lose that you lose everything. You can come back from low birth rates.

I’m aware. But Japan is unique in its age population. It’s not a forgone conclusion that they can recover like other places when those other places didn’t have the demographics so unique to Japan.

That’s literally the issue, tradition is preventing this, some things can change

I was thinking about this the other day and i realized that they would be fine if they just exported key areas of their economy and kept the management portions in japan. Outsourcing would fix the labor issues. Keep only enough jobs for your own populace within national borders and just export the rest. The money from the foreign labor flows back home. Why not have other nations make up for the absense of your own young people?


Also, i think the senior crisis could be fixed by paying your elderly to go retire abroad. It would fix the healthcare aspect of elder care, and even the pension issues because the dwindling pensions would still support your populace wonderfully in those ASEAN nations.

The language barrier alone makes both of these things infeasible. How many people outside of Japan speak Japanese? If you were a senior would you want to get sent off to some foreign land where you don't speak the language? A completely different diet as well? Nah...

What country is going to want to take on Japan’s elderly that aren’t going to work anymore? They’ll become a burden to the new country

the elderly going abroad is a terrible idea. in their twilight years they'll go to a foreign country and find it difficult to communicate with others.. thats gonna breed more isolation. access to medical services will be a chore due to the language barrier. culture shock on top of it too.

Not to mention the fact that pretty much all of Japan's neighbors have DEEP historical beefs with them. If you send a bunch of seniors throughout Asia we will witness elder abuse on a scale hitherto unseen. They would force them into underground geriatric fight clubs and shyt. Get them all hopped up on the drugs and record the fights. I can see it already.

spy x family was supposed to save the country

shinzo abe rolling in his grave

Shinzo Abe's assassination actually did a ton of good. The Assassin won, and was right

America is next

America still has many immigrants wanting to come here. It'll be a majority minority nation in 2045 because people still want to come here.

China and many east Asian countries honestly are probably going to open their borders up to Africa and India if they don't want to become Geritocracies.

 

[BulletProof]

you and Nick Cannon

He has the Americas on lock.

I got Asia.

We have an arrangement.
