Japan’s lost generation is still jobless and living with their parents
I&#x27;ve traveled a fair bit, and every part of Japan that I&#x27;ve been to feels like I&#x27;ve timed-traveled 20 years into a better future [compared to anywhere else I&#x27;ve been].<p>Yet there seems to be a fairly constant negative economic narrative about Japan (and this narrative seems to be decades old). What&#x27;s the deal? Are my observations superficial, or are economists just annoyed that Japan doesn&#x27;t fit their world-view (low growth must equal disaster).
