Japan just had the fewest babies born in any year on record. Not since the war. Not since the 1918 flu. Since records began in 1899. 705,809 births, the tenth annual record low in a row, and they're now down 30% in a decade. More than two deaths for every birth. The population shrank by almost 900,000 people in twelve months. This is what a demographic spiral looks like in real time. Fewer young people now means fewer parents in twenty years, which means fewer births in thirty. Recovery requires reversing a trend that has been running for half a century.
