@spectre BPS is in denial because he loved Japan. Japan absolutely has a welfare system for the elderly. BPS wants to separate welfare for seniors from welfare for the poor.

Why do you think Japan is in so much debt? Do you think they were buying anime figurines with all that money? It was all social welfare spending.

Sure, in a vacuum a declining pop isn't a huge deal, but the Earth doesn't stand still while you bankrupt yourself with welfare and feminism.
