■Japan will never have a “last chance”
It is called the “lost 30 years,” but in a sense, these 30 years have also been “30 years in which children who should have been born were lost.” It is also the “Lost 30 Years of Marriage.” While marriages and births that would have otherwise occurred were lost, the Ice Age generation of young people was created. The Ice Age Generation refers to those born between 1970 and 1982 who entered the workforce in the 1990s and early 2000s. As of 2024, most of the population is in their early 40s to 50s. By the way, in 2020, young people of the Ice Age Generation who were 25 years old in 1995 turned 50 years old, and in that year’s census, the rate of unmarried people at age 50 (lifelong unmarried rate) reached an all-time high for both men and women (28.3% for men and 17.8% for women). When it comes to the issue of declining birthrates, the government and the media say things like “this year is our last chance” every year, but Japan’s declining birthrate was confirmed in the 1990s, and our last chance ended long ago. As we have pointed out many times in this series, Japan’s measures to combat the declining birthrate are fundamentally misguided (see “Childcare support’’ is actually accelerating the declining birthrate…the curse of “raising children is expensive’’ spread by the media’’), but the reason the current birth rate is continuing to decline is not because married couples are not having children. ■The reason why “mothers” have disappeared from Japan
As I have written several times in the past, the number of children born to one mother has not decreased compared to the 1980s, and the reason for the decrease in the number of births is the “declining motherhood,” which means that the number of mothers who give birth has decreased (“The government’s measures are things like ’have five children per person’… the essence of population decline is not the declining birthrate but the ’declining motherhood’”). The reason why the “declining mother population” occurred is because the “third baby boom that should have come did not occur” from the late 1990s to the early 2000s. Continue reading below.

Are you still saying this?
Global warming is the worst crisis in human history.
We need to accelerate the decline in the birth rate to prevent global warming and protect our future children!

The declining birthrate is caused by the widespread belief that personal time is more important than raising children. If income were the cause, we would have expected a baby boom to occur during the bubble period, but in reality, the birthrate continued to decline even during the bubble period. Unless people change their values, subsidies will not solve the problem of declining birthrates; they will simply be used to enrich their own free time.

Finding a job is as easy as it was during the bubble era. What’s more, starting salaries at Yoshinoya and McDonald’s are 300,000 yen, right? Compared to the Ice Age generation, they’re in a much better position.

Many of the famous people from the Ice Age were stubborn and a bit eccentric, so I think it must have been a difficult generation.

If you look at the world birth rate rankings, poverty and birth rate are contradictory. The reality is that the poorer you are, the higher the birth rate.

That’s probably because children are considered a labor force and they don’t use contraception.

In other words, they should have cut off the old folks and saved the young people. It definitely killed that generation.

The Ice Age seniors were able to get by just fine even with low incomes as long as they were unmarried, so the younger generation is just following suit.

Prime Minister: “Will the declining birthrate become a problem in 30 years? No, young people can’t overcome their sexual desires. If we leave it alone, the number of children will increase. “

This is because if you don’t find a marriage partner while you’re still a student, it’s too late to start looking for one after you enter the workforce.

I am currently going to a workshop. Someone from the Ice Age generation scolded me, saying, “Why are you going to a workshop?! Hurry up and go to Hello Work!”

During the previous Koizumi administration, the majority of new graduates were made non-regular workers, so now that they have lost the bulk of the baby boomer junior generation, there are no more opportunities. From now on, we will see an increase in foreigners and a worsening security situation. Right now, we are tolerating the increase in foreigners due to a labor shortage because there are jobs available, but if a recession hits, it will no longer be possible to send children to cram school after 9 p.m.

The beginning of the end of Japan was when politics led the low wages of non-regular workers (citizens) under Koizumi and Keke.
The reason why the LDP is moving in the direction of reducing the number of Japanese citizens is because they want to promote Kishi, the Unification Church, and a US province.

It’s the result of postponing the clean-up after the bubble burst. During the Lehman Shock, we learned from Japan’s mistakes, so there was no global depression.

Because only beautiful men and women appear in the media and content, the entire nation has high expectations and is completely mistaken, but content would not work if people were ugly in the first place.
