Just so we’re keeping score; Japan has:

• Bought out all the toilet paper and meat whilst refusing to stay home

• Spread fake news that half of the COVID infections are from foreigners

• Kept playgrounds open so kids won’t be “stressed”

• Refused to shut down trains
I could go on and on but let me say this. Japan’s unique crisis just got accelerated by decades. Their stubbornness to do the right thing will not only cost them their lives/livelihoods, but it’s setting the stage for their undoing as a world power.
That declining birth rate is going to continue to plummet. Nobody is coming out of this with baby fever. Their economy is GOING to collapse. Attempts to save it have only ensured the virus continues to spread. Their “I’m so special” mindset sealed their fate.
