Genuinely, what is to be done about Japan's aging population, and what prospects does this have for its future as a country? Should I even take the JLPT if Japan's just going to allow itself to fade away anyway? Japan is absolutely a country worth saving. It's 2026; where the fuck are all those robots?
>>223970426They're doing their best
>>223970426we should have let all the old niggas die during COVID that was the last chance
>>223970447That probably would have happened had they been more 'American' in their handling of it.
>>223970426it will fix itself once enough rapejeets have moved in
>>223970562Not to get too /pol/itical, but that's apparently exactly what Takaichi wants.
>>223970426What job are you even gonna get in Japan? They don't want "English teachers" anymore. They are wary of gaijin because they're too afraid to scold you if you underperform or screw up. They have no such inhibitions with brown Indons, Viets or Indians.
>>223972362I dunno man, maybe get into AI and get a job using that there. I know I'd be in competition with Indians and such. I just want MY chance to live and work in Japan before the whole country simply disappears; I certainly worked for that opportunity in university (though I was never afforded said opportunity).
>>223970426Population decline is good. The rest of the world should be like Japan.8 billion humans is not sustainable.
>>223973805Get the hell outta here, Malthus. Go on, git.
>>223970426Nothing. They'll just go extinct like everyone else. Hopefully mods won't move this to /pol/>>223973805Retard-kun the problem isn't the net number of people it's the percentage of dependent 65yr+ olds who need expensive pensions and healthcare for several decades who produce 0 value or work to the working 18-65yr old age group. If the balance is skewed too far towards the former because you have long life expectancy and low TFRs then your country becomes a glorified elderly care facility because all your expenses go solely towards sustaining a massive and useless class of pensioners
>>223970426>nursery home development. Apartment complexes meant exclusively for parents with children under the age of 18. >national pensions are exclusive to people with children >you lose the right to vote when retiring >DIY for parents. Literally positive descrimination for them in hiring processes Off the top of my head. We used to have a ton of kids because they were needed on the farm. Make kids actually usefull again and discriminate incels and childless foids. You are either a gainfully employed parent or you are part of the untouchables. State sanctioned unfuckables couplings. You VILL marry and impregnate the 2/10, chudcell freak
Why are 4cuck incels so fucking obsessed with that shit? What the fuck is it to you faggots
>>223973947I dunno, Swedebro, I feel like that's blaming the victim (incels).
>>223973965Never fear my sexless friend. Chad will removed from the market with his Stacy partner in his early twenties in the natalist dictatorship. No longer will Becky waste away her eggs in his DM harem. She will be forced to find an appropriate partner lest she be relegated to the incel ghetto
>>223973947>>you lose the right to vote when retiringPolitical parties have already gotten used to 30-40% of the entire active voting block being 60+ and have adjusted their marketing and policies accordingly and have already calculated that the pensioner voting block will only get bigger over time. 60+ yr olds were 30% of the voting block in your 2022 riksdag election and they have higher turnout rates than any other demographic. Why would politicians get rid of this massively important asset?
>>223970426Demographic collapse is fake af they treat it like an existential threat to justify immigrationYoull have a period of lower productivity and economic output and then itll sort itself out naturally No society has collapsed because its people got too old
>>223974033Millenials will be the largest voting block here once the boomers die
>>223974035>itll sort itself out naturallySource?>>223974069They'll just become the new boomers. Actually it'll be worse because they'll have an even bigger share of the population and thus have more political leverage and they'll need an even bigger portion of spending towards their pensions and healthcare and retirement homes
>>223970426They (and every country on earth) should just completely delete pension system, that's the whole point, for some fucking reason governments would rather flood their country with barely sentient nafris and jeets than stop paying 110 year old mummies for their 4th lung transplant so they can hoard assets a little longer
>>223970426If you really want to protect Japan, you’ve got to stop treating it like a colony, lol.Whether Japan tries to build its own aircraft or develop its own CPUs, it’s the United States that keeps getting in the way.How is Japan supposed to sustain its development under those conditions?
>>223970426nice chair
>>223973854You pretty much just raise the retirement age and kill the old, those are bad things but nobody's going extinct
>>223974473You're just delaying the logical conclusion of the 21st demographics issue with these measures. How long will you keep raising the retirement age? Can an 80ye old really be trusted to produce any meaningful amount of work or more production than their expensive upkeep required to keep them alive and working? The main limits here are biological entropy and numbers you can't just push their limits forever.
