Do you think something similar will happen to Japan in which it'll bring in more immigrants? Where do you think they'll come from if they do?
Or do you think that Japan will tough it out with the population they have?
I personally hope they do not increase immigration, I think Japan is best staying as a homogeneous nation.  |
I also think it should tough it out but not because the reason you give.
Japan is not a homogeneous nation by the way. It is less diverse than the USA or the UK or other western countries but is not homogeneous.
The reason I think Japan should let its population decline is for environmental reasons.
The fact is that Japan consumes more than it can sustain from a global perspective.
