Wait till "they" read your post. "They" will quote you on how bad Japan is and the "haven" we live in.<br/>I'm sure you got any idea about who "they" may be.<br/>Thank you for the info.

Kudos for still having the strength to dredge things up. <br/><br/>The worst part is is that in the midst of a system that you'd think couldn't possibly work, you have an immense amount of efficiency and comfort. The trains run on time, the streets are clean, and the homeless are peripheral and don't trouble you with their problems. Its really hard to get anyone to care about things when the problems don't seem urgent.<br/><br/>I'm really just curious to see how all these things, especially in regards to the lack of legal immigration into a decreasing workforce, will play out thinking about how screwed up Japan is is exhausting.

The solution to which being a very high tech sex industry, serving Japanese men anonymously. You have definitely opened my eyes regarding Japan through this and other posts over the past few years.

AMAZING to see how Japan is digging its own cultural and international grave these days. Very hard to imagine what is going to happen to the country eventually. I'm beyond trying to guess.<br/><br/>Are we in a period of changes for the worse for Japan right now, or does it just seem like that?
