Yes, this first article is dated six months ago, but the first sentence really says it all. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-05-09/elderly-at-record-spurs-japan-stores-chase-1-4-trillion.html Hold your adult baby jokes, please- especially since it portends a horrible economic future in Japan, and ultimately the world. http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2012/10/the-next-panic/309081/?single_page=true tl;dr- The elderly population holds a great deal of Japanese debt, and the government refuses to change the pension system to prevent the oncoming economic disaster.
