Demographic collapse is a myth. Japan has been in it for a couple decades. Sure, their economy is stagnant, but their standard of living is still very high and it is nothing resembling a "collapse." Arguments that we must allow mass immigration or face dire consequences are nonsense.
- spwa4 1y agoI'd look up a few more stats and stories about the situation in Japan. Their economy has been stagnant ... well they call it a "lost decade". Despite the name, "decade", it's coming up on 36 years now. Outside of the major cities (and frankly inside, just to a lesser extent), everything has crashed - from education to grocery stores, to apartment sizes.
