Gabriero2 In the course of my work, I have had the opportunity to listen to many high school students, and I was surprised by the number of anti-saro statements.
rougetgachihold Generation Z, there are many statements that honestly send a chill down my spine. We, the older generation, argue that “the working-age burden is too heavy and should be lowered,” but not a few of them seem to think, “Why do we need to care for the elderly in the first place? By the time I am an old man, the social security problem will likely be finally solved.
