You also get:

• a population with an increasingly large number of older people

-a relatively higher tax rate

-a pension program which is unsustainable needing a new retirement age of 65 to 67

-stratospheric chronic unemployment rate

-a lifetime-employment system which translates to a large permanently-jobless population that's just generally pissed

-and employment being somewhat elite
