Whatever the Japanese do, they're in deep trouble. According to some projections, Japan's population could decline by about a third by 2100, potentially dropping from over 125 million to about 80-100 million.
On top of the demographic collapse, Japan's economy is in bad shape. They import more than they produce - mostly because of energy needs.
