Economic it already has an impact but socially it is getting out of control. The mayor reason why the youth is still doing alright is because the elders saved so much and are willingly to help financially like giving 200.000-300.000 € that cuts down their pressure still many already can not take it now and planning to leave or totally get depressed and becomes a NEED. And we already saw the same in Eu countries like for examples recently the Netherlands who can't afford to spend so much money anymore and cut hundreds of retirement homes leaving a hundred thousand unemployment leading now to a Netherlands that the last 30 years never saw so many unemployed people; Japan can easy find a million or five people from Europe/USA/etc who want to live in Japan and want to Learn Japanese and want preserve it's culture...millions are dreaming of it... it would help Japan but also USA/EU. the only problem is that they don't have Japanese blood.. Would you mind that their were immigrants who want to live so much in Sweden that they learning Swedish at the moment and would jump on it if they find work their? |
I don't understand what you mean about pressure on Japanese young people what it has to do with an aging population and lack of immigrants?
I know that Japanese young people feel pressure, but that's because Japan's society is changing. There's a shift in values taking place between generations. Traditionally the Japanese are very hard working and conservative and young people are expected to get a good education and family, while in reality many young modern Japanese have dreams and wish more freedom. It's a problem but it has nothing to do with an aging population whatsoever.
Are you seriously claiming that Japanese young people are planning to leave the country? That's absolutely laughable. There's zero truth to that. Some youngsters might say that in a poll or interview but that's just an expression of frustration based on a feeling of not living up to the expectations. Japanese are famous for not moving out of their country.
I don't understand your paragraph about the Netherlands. Can you clarify your point there? If anything, the Netherlands are making budget cuts because of the huge economical strain from immigration, cuts that naturally also affect "retirement homes" or whatever you were refering to.
No, I do not want millions of Europeans to move to Japan. A few thousand is okay, a few tens of thousands. If the japanese themselves are fine with it. But you're talking millions? No. Immigrants in large numbers would destabilize the Japanese order in many ways. The Japanese society is even less able to integrate immigrants than European countries are. It's a sensitive society. Didn't you just describe how the Japanese young were depressed and under pressure?? And you want a bunch of Westerners there to compete with them and make their lives even more miserable? Thankfully Japanese politicians and voters understand the nature of their own society.
And what do you mean with your last sentence? If I want immigrants here just because they are willing to learn Swedish?? Hell no. I don't care if half the world wants to come here, they have no right to come here. We have far far too many already. I feel like a foreigner in my own country, young swedes are already in minority in the big cities, we have a rapidly increasing amount of ghettos, we have permanent mass unemployment, increase in violent crime, the economy is suffering, and our media and authorites are only concerned about ever increasing immigrant rights and demands. All while our delusional government is letting in people like never before.
