Yes and the prescription is even more new builds. We need immigration, we are aging.
- insightful1 3y agoOk, bring 50 million then, and build accordingly We are aging and your argument is irrefutable
- mnd999 3y agoRight wing commentators, which is basically the whole media, like to blame immigration for all the problems in the country. It’s much simpler and less awkward for them than trying to explain what is really going on.
- insightful1 3y agoImmigration is demand, while supply has been sticky, prices have gone up massively. It's economics 101. But you think there's a kind of boomer conspiracy instead (ageist and racist undertones).
- sokoloff 3y agoTo be fair, a lot of the griping about immigration also reads to me to have racist undertones. (That could be influenced by my American reading, but it doesn't seem 100% that.)
- Lastodon 3y agoJapan is still a first world nation. The world hasn't ended for them. Can we stop pretending that having a population that isn't exponentially growing is a bad thing.
- rs999gti 3y ago> having a population that isn't exponentially growing is a bad thing. I want social programs, but you got to have a tax base to pay for it
