I just watched this brief and interesting report on the phenomenon of a spike in petty crime committed by the elderly in Japan. Just more proof that seniors the world over are struggling just to survive changes in family structure, the economy and strained social support systems in a country with one of the oldest populations. Currently 1 out of every 3 people is 65+ -- or 29% of the total count. Italy is 24%, Germany is 22% and the US is 18%.
