Aufgrund des Überangebots japanischer Jugendlicher, die Angestellte werden möchten, lohnt sich die Investition in ein Studium in Japan möglicherweise nicht mehr: „In Japan ist die Investition in Bildung nicht besonders vorteilhaft. Wenn eine andere Investition eine Rendite von 3 % auf Studiengebühren usw. abwirft, wird sie profitabler.“

Google „elite overproduction“ ( someone from anarchy chess pls reply)
The same thing is happening everywhere it seems. Trades are becoming more profitable, while white collar jobs are becoming a casino.
Same worldwide. China’s youth unemployment problem is largely concentrated in college educated white collar workers, the factories and farms are actually starved for workers.
Theoretically this would result in wages rebalancing but if that happens it’s going to be a painful transition.
AI effect
In the age of AI I can’t see a world where we need all of these white collar workers.
Just gamble it all on pachinko or buttcoin.
So, increase pay and reduce working hours on blue collar work, then.
Where I work now, 70% of the staff are management. All men.
Apparently, their job is to yell across the office so everybody knows how important they are.
The women laugh at their jokes and get doted on. Even visiting managers from other branches are guaranteed to stop by their desk on the way out and slobber.
Efficiency be damned. All playing a part. Anybody with skill is careful not to show it in case it rocks the boat.
It’s sad that kids study like maniacs for so long until college graduation to get into the dream schools, but the ideal endpoint is a low-paying, mind-numbing, long-hour job with no lifetime employment.
