Japan: No refugees, we must look after our own citizens first.

[Tome]

It doesn't surprise me with the changes that has happened to the world recently, that being Trump, Brexit and some more "racist" political parties are gaining more voters in other countries.

People are getting tired, and hope for a change. What change is unsure, but something other than "this" that we were getting.

most countries are founded on the idea of nationalism, thats why we have countries in the first place, otherwise there would be little need for them, multi-culti is something relatively recent and adopted by handful of countries compared to the rest of the world. And thats fine... as long as they dont start to force it on everyone else in their vicinity...

When a country is founded by religious refugees of different origins, sheltered by natives and built on the backs of slaves how do you deny that multi-culti is part of it?

The math disagrees with you, this is a sliding slope that has been going on for ages unless some major societal changes are made it will continue.

They grew to this size once, didn't they? Eventually their society will realize that they have to create babies some more

It will stabilize once it enters a freefall when positions both appear and open up that the NEETs can start considering. A whole lot of it is relative - hikikomori often don't want to cope with the deadly rate of work typical to Japan, but when there's less people you suddenly can start negotiating work cultures again.

Population may stabilize, but it's economy will be in the toilet for a long time. Strangely enough, Japan may embrace that challenge since much of the country does love its own culture too much to change. (I wish them well in that regard)

It's a rather long explanation but the tldr version of it is that Japanese society has put pressures, habits that have become part of their society. These values are basically killing the family unit and driving their birth rate into the ground, in Japan you are easily a much happier person being single. It's not like their society doesn't realize they need more babies it is just it cannot let go of these horrible stigmas and expectations.

1. US has no moral obligation to do anything concerning refugees or migrants

Even if US make war in their country, under the banner that they do it to help the people who live there....

And the economy will soar once those disenfranchised young people have something to do. They have the means for it.
