I've been seeing many reports on NHK Newsline about graduating students not being able to find work. Some reports say that nearly 50% of graduating classes cannot find a job or the job they do find is part-time and not sufficient to sustain oneself.

On the other hand, I see reports on how nearly 25% of the population is 65 years or older and the number will be growing in the future. Those people get paid pensions from the ever-decreasing number of active workers who pay the taxes.

I don't know where this is going to lead.... If the native people cannot find jobs, how can the influx of foreigners help?
