lol. exactly what you just said "well, if you hate your life then.....GO AND WORK!" is like any government would want you to since workforce killing themselves is costly for society.

and ill stick by that - if you want to then go ahead, kill yourself, you won't be judged by me.

P.S those 30 000 Japanese only make up for 3% of worlds suicides. not exactly an epidemic.
Yes, but the number in proportion to Japan's population is high, and despite Japan's small size, it is still the world's third largest economy. As such, Japan's suicide rate has a subtle influence on the world's economy, in other words it even affects your life.

Life isn't about work, it is about living. Work is a basic part of life, and even animals must do it if they want to survive. In the old days grief stricken people would emigrate, or join the foreign legion and often they found a new reason to live. The government has nothing to do with it.

There are many ways to commit suicide, an few people are as ingenious as the Japanese when it comes to creative ways to commit suicide, but regardless of the method, if they have any living family, then their family members are going to bear a large cost.
