Comment on Is South Korea "Over"? Is Japan on the verge of "Collapse"? Do these narratives have real evidence or just exaggerating/fearmongering?

Any time you see a headlines about population collapse, remember that the hidden complaint is that wages will rise when there are less people in the job market.

So many business models are predicated on hiring low skilled, failed individuals to do menial labor for close to nothing in a job they can’t afford to quit.

When there are less people who are highly educated, slop jobs disappear which is a good thing
