3 Reasons Why Japan's CHEAPNESS is Harmful to Society! The Horrifying Truth That No One Talks About

Living in Japan, it’s very difficult to notice that this country is actually very “cheap,” and until I read this book “Cheap Japan: Price indicates Japan’s stagnation,” I didn’t know about it either. I also did not know that Japan being a cheap country causes much more harm to our society than I ever imagined, and that it is a severe social problem that we all need to face in order to preserve Japan for the future.

So today, I would like to first explain the meaning of “Japan is cheap,” as well as the reason why. At the end of the video, I will also explain about the horrifying problems that this situation is causing,
many of which I believe you never knew existed. I hope this video will be a chance for you to look at Japan from a different point of view.

By the way, this book compares Japan with many other countries to express its cheapness so if you live in any of the countries I mention, it would be great if you could let me know in the comments how you feel about the claims.
