it is not just japan, whole world has the same problem. all developed countries have birth rate low below the clean reproduction rate and are slowly dying out.

I know. Japan isn't an exception, it's just early.
Firstly governments should stop blocking immigration then.
Secondly billionaires have gotten richer globally and you can only get richer if you are making others poorer wether it's directly or by printing money.
