> which is to not handle geriatric care well at all
There is a recent Japanese Sci-Fi movie that came out at Cannes recently called Plan 75 [0] that touches on that option
Ofc, Japan is a democracy and old people vote.
Even if the LDP ruled for much of Japan's democratic history, it's still vulnerable to losing power due to public anger (eg. Kishida's corruption scandal).
Imagine how angrier Japanese voters would be with horrible geriatric care.
