Is Japan's pension system headed for oblivion?
Just a question here for old timers and new people alike ?
How many of you think we have within the next 15 - 20 years got a pension time bomb on our hands with the 国民年金 system?.
The governments repeated lack of effort to tackle de-population and bulging older generation ( and repeatedly not wanting to discuss the idea of immigration due to not wanting to piss off voters ) at least to me stinks of an almighty collapse sooner rather than later.
It kinda makes sense that young people don't want to pay in to a system where they are likely to not get out a decent pension when they're older or at least a LOT less than they paid in?
Wondering what other ex-pats thoughts were on this ?.
