Japan’s birth rate has crashed to the point they sell more depends than diapers.

Japan's fertility rate is 1.4 children born/woman (2015 est.) which is 211th in the world out of 224. They rank just behind Greece and ahead of Slovakia. Japanese have the second longest longevity rate in the world, 84.74 years.

The US has a fertility rate of 1.87, which is 142nd, just behind Sweden. The US life expectancy is 79.68 years, which is 43rd in the world.

Japan has 0 migrant(s)/1,000 population (2015 est.), which is 93rd in the world. So does South Korea. The US has 3.86 migrant(s)/1,000 population (2015 est.), 34th in the world.

I would rather have more people wearing depends than a growing underclass wearing more and more diapers. By 2019, half of the children 18 and under will be minorities as classified by the USG; and by 2043 non-Hispanic whites will be just half the population, and 43% by 2060.
