So true. Over and over again in the article it says that people can’t afford children and universities. It keeps saying the cost of living is up and then says there is no single cause people won’t have children.

And you can’t discount Japan’s absurdly toxic work culture.

Exacerbated by……. Capitalism.

Oh for sure, just saying there is another extra layer in the shit cake.

Feudal-inspired work culture, ultra-liberal capitalism, and xenophobia what a combo!
