Who knows, but this level of denialism is astonishing
I honestly don't understand what the Japanese economic issue is. Can someone explain?
Japan has a incredibly low unemployment rate, so unemployment isn't really an issue...
It's explained Very adequately on Page One by Me and Orphan slug. UNTOUCHED by you.
You obviously Ignore the problems .. and have before as well.
Why?
It's obviously eco-political denialism and your stance on/dismissal of debt, etc.
(
For Gavinfielder and Ellis_G also)
1. Not just declining population but declining Workforce.
Far too xenophobic for immigration.
2. Increasing Social demands on a smaller base due to that horrendous 1.3 fertility rate...so that..
3. Japan not only loses ¼ Million people a year, it loses more than that in workforce.
That Loss will become 1 Million people a year in the next 5-10 years.
4. Japan has spent TWICE what they take in 6 of the last 7 years, (imagine if we ran $3.5 Trillion deficits), soooo...
5. Is Printing Yen at wheelbarrow speed to buy their own Newly issued debt.. IOW...
6. A Ponzi Scheme.. ergo..
7. Has had 10 Finance minister in 7 years..
8. One FM who committed suicide..
9. Another FM had a nervous breakdown...
10. Yet another FM who, also realizing the problem, urged the country's elderly to "Hurry up and Die".
!!
11. Historic debt levels/ugly history for that Dwindling population to shoulder
I've posted ALL of this many times, and you have seen, and been in total denialism about it before. Which again, Includes Page One in This string.
