Regarding the Japanese experience--it is my impression that while the growth collapse was contained--average incomes plummeted and never recovered and that work became far more insecure with an ever growing percentage of irregular work, also more homelessness etc. In other words, that there was a qualitative decline in quality of life for the average person.

Is this a correct impression?

like Japan during the 1990s? except on a global scale?
