Nyororin,
While I may not always agree with you, I do appreciate the detailed, intelligent and rational responses to some of the reactionary stuff posted.

My own rather reactionary dismissal of some of it is much worse. If you don't like a foreign country's ways, get out. No one is demanding you stay. Quit being an arrogant visitor and go home. Your attitude is about as appealing as an invading army.


As for the low birthrate, the Japanese would be better off to address the causes than to encourage immigration, especially when those who respond seem to be either unhappy or disrespectful of their culture.

The problem is population density and high stress life styles. More people will not solve this and if scientific studies are correct, it will actually make the problem worse.
