Following the conquest of Japan by the United States, Kato and other socialists were elected to the Japanese Diet, and the government passed the 1948 Eugenic Protection Law, which permitted contraception and abortion. The abortion rate is currently estimated to be approximately 250,000 per year.
This is EXACTLY what is happening in the United States, we are just a generation behind.

Or is it that the real estate bubble and following deflation making credit unavailable especially to the young, keeping them in their parents houses has inhibited the formation of new households?
I’d offer to help...
When our population hits the top of the bell curve its gonna be one heckuva ride down the other side!
I worked with Japanese people at Japanese company for 12 years. Japanese kids are the cutest kids in the world and well behaved. It is a shame that they don’t have more of them.
The Japanese are alive and well and procreating all over Vancouver, BC. Last I checked.
This article sounds like a back-door attempt to force Japan to allow mass immigration and illegal immigration
Coming from the Liberal Economist magazine....no doubt this is the objective
Japan is one of the most homogenous (one main ethnic group) nationa on the planet. Their economic problems stem from crooked politicians and businesses who robbed the Japanese economy during its heyday.
The only way an economy rebounds is to attract investment....not increase the number of workers. Japan could add 30-40 million more people....but...if there is no capital to fund job creation...increase population is moot.
Japan still has not recovered from its economic collapse in the early 90’s. However, if they use the Globalist mantra of Free Trade/Open Borders....their economy will never recover. We know now Free Trade/Open Borders has failed for Europe and the USA. Japan has already shipped many of its manufacturing jobs out of the country...and they still are stagnant
This is horrible. I need to send this to a Japanese (Christian) colleague and friend; maybe his recently-married son and DIL can help reverse this. I look at some of our younger Anglican families and while I know they aren't practicing abortion, contraception seems to not be in the picture either.
And what an irony that but for WWII (and Pearl Harbor) things might be different.
Warnings about this problem in Japan were made 20 years ago.
