Japan never had a labor movement like the west did. They have relatively little work that needs doing, but they spend a whole lot of their day signaling their loyalty to the company so they can even have a job at all. It's fucking pathetic and it's very much a sign of late stage capitalism.
South Korea is in the same boat. They've embraced a lot of modern technology to make jobs easier, but this means the competition for remaining jobs is so fierce that kids have to sacrifice their entire childhood or they're not good enough to for one of the few entry level positions.
An attempt to claim that 'capitalism has failed' and a demand for more government regulation while, ironically, pointing to issues that could only exist thanks to government regulation.
Perhaps you forgot what capitalism did in the 1920. Do you think repealing Social Security would benefit this country? Or even be possible?
Capitalism is great for growing markets. Agriculture stopped being a growth market in the early 20th century and this was choking the world economy. Returning that industry to pure capitalism would be a disaster. We're in the same situation today where there's little room for industry to grow and competition is becoming cancerous.
The simple solution would be a shorter workweek, like the very socialist 40 hour workweek we already have.
And they work from dawn to dusk trying to find the optimal font choice for a spreadsheet and have no time to court women. Japanese companies have some strange sense of duty to employees and will give a burned out employee a window watching job just to get him out of the way.
If they wanted to fix the birth rates, they would actually start with pulling back on the idea of literally working yourself to death.

What's that?

Capitalism is a competition right? Eventually someone wins the competition.
