| #6 What's wrong with the population of a densely populated country falling? OK it causes problems for any insane welfare state ponzi schemes, but their absence makes countries better. |

| #4 Japan does not encourage immigration, as I recall. Or has that changed recently? |

| #3 Huh? I see nothing here to suggest it is immigrants who are turning the numbers around. If you have evidence that demonstrates it is, then post the link. I have few doubts that immigrants to Japan are, generally speaking, of the non-assimilating variety - only the youngest generation would be open to immigrants, I think, based upon Japanese I know who emigrated to the US, not first-hand experience there. IIRC, the immigration rate is low - because it isn't actually desired by the Japanese, for the most part. I could be wrong about all of it, lol, but I see no evidence to suggest or prove otherwise. |

| #2 Does this include recent immigrants from other Asian countries to Japan? If so, and if those immigrants are assimilating as poorly as the muzzies in Euroland or many of the Latinos here, this is hardly cause for celebration. |
