An interesting fact on the aging Japanese population is that more adults in Japan use nappies than babies and children - surely as time goes on, Japan's economy is going to be worse off?

if u have an ageing population and all ur younger population are leaving to work elsewhere that is v bad
But surely as you are an advocate of abolishing the minimum wage, this sort of cheap labour is going to help private businesses and therefore the economy as whole?No, that's how corporatism works by driving down wages of developed countries. That's why multinationals love mass immigration.
Japan barely allows any immigration let alone mass immigration, and it's the third largest economy in the world. Japan even faces a sharp population decrease (which would do it no harm considering how jam packed it is) over the next century on current population projections yet still doesn't feel the need to dilute or sacrifice it's ancient culture for the sake of a few GDP points.
Or is there a difference between immigrant cheap labour and 'born-and-bred' cheap labour?
