I agree, a lot of countries are facing low levels of birth rates; even some third world countries are too. Korea and Japan seems to be having the worst of it. I think EU is also facing a massive problem with the illegal immigrants. I think the biggest problem in Japan is that a lot of their people are Xenophobic. While those in the West can turn to hard working immigrants for help, the Japanese aren't as keen. We can only watch how these things turn out. Unless there is a shift in how things are run, things will only get worse.
