          You also get:

          • a population with an increasingly large number of older people

          -a relatively higher tax rate

          -a pension program which is unsustainable needing a new retirement age of 65 to 67

          -A country where mid career change is difficult

          -stratospheric chronic unemployment rate

          -a lifetime-employment system which translates to a large permanently-jobless population that’s just generally pissed

          -and employment being somewhat elite
