I think you are seriously misreading my comment; give it another glance. The journalists's use of the pejorative "parasite" is not appropriate for someone who fell under serious misfortune as living with Parkinson's. "Parasite" implies a willful decision to live off another's resources. The first example was that: the woman decided to pursue emotionally fulfilling work without saving or contributing to a pension. I'm criticizing the journalist, who in the attempt to document a "weird Japan" trend, just dug up a sad story which could have happened anywhere in the world.
