Do some research.

Japan's population in 1980 was 116.8 million. 126.3 million in 2020. That's an 8% increase.

The USA experienced nearly a 50% increase over that same period.

Meanwhile, Japan's GDP went from 1.105 trillion to 5.04 trillion, all while reporting greater well-being among the population.

It's a myth.
