Japan’s Disposable Workers: Dumping Ground

Kamagasaki, Osaka, Japan used to be a thriving day laborer’s town. Today, it is home to approximately 25,000 unemployed and elderly men, many of whom are also homeless.Alcoholism, poverty, suicide, Tuberculosis and, most of all, loneliness prevail here. These men don’t have family ties. They live and die as social outcasts from the mainstream “salaryman” culture. (May 19, 2014)
