Is 25 yo elderly for you? Because by 2030 there will certainly NOT be 85% of the population as elderly (well except if some new sickness kills all the people below 65 obviously). There might be 35% though, which is already quite high but not unmanageable. |

Either way, japan's population is not only ageing but declining at an exponential rate due to low childbirth - which has been directly attributed to the piss poor work life balance. The Japan as we know it today will not exist in a few decades. It will either be a far less populous country, or full of immigrants.
So I don't think we can take their 'not us vs them' attitude in the workplace as any kind of precursor for a successful or happy society.
