Japan: Robot Nation

Anny sent me this video. Interesting look on the current cultural condition facing the Japanese nation. Also makes me want to go back and visit.

Japan, the world’s second largest economy, is facing a demographic crisis that will shrink the population dramatically. The Japanese aren’t having babies, and the country won’t accept immigrants to help bolster the population. But Japan may have a unique solution — Robots!
