"The Great People Shortage is coming — and it's going to cause
global economic chaos"
"he world has seen a population boom over the past few decades. The
globe's 4 billionth person was born in 1975 and now, in about a month,
the 8 billionth person will probably be born. This "population bomb"
has been cited by experts as an unprecedented challenge to the
ecological balance of our planet — when 50 Nobel laureates were
asked in 2017 what the greatest threat to humanity is, more than a
third of them named the overpopulation of the planet. And there is no
doubt that slowing population growth is an important tool to combat
the climate crisis.
But what those Nobel laureates overlooked is the fact that the forces leading to a population drop are already in motion. In fact, in 40
years or so, the global population will begin to decline.It will not
be a virus, a war, or a natural disaster that will cause this
population decline. Instead, it will be an increase in living
standards. Progress in living standards since the birth of the
Industrial Revolution has been accompanied not only by rising life expectancy, but also by falling birth rates. People are healthier,
richer, better educated, living longer, and having fewer children. As
a result, the number of children born in rich countries like the US,
in Europe, and China is not sufficient anymore to keep those
populations stable. But this decrease in humanity is not a reason to
cheer, but rather a looming disaster for our economy. The great labor shortage caused by the declining population will cripple our global
economy unless we find innovative ways to keep things running."

An obvious solution for the pragmatic Americans of the near
future is to allow more immigrants to enter the country legally.

complicate it with "legally". Look, just you know, pick them up at the border, give them some like, you know, dry clothes, a mail-in ballot,
a box of spaghetti, and bus them to wherever they're needed. Look, as
you all know, "legally" is like, you know, a threat to democracy.

I allege that you worry a great deal about a great decline, in like minded voters, and rightfully so! I can't help but wonder, how staunch Georgia Republicans "really feel", about Hershel Walker as the hometown poster boy, for the GOP? HawHawHaw!

As far as "like minded voters" goes I'm with Alfred E. Newman. 'What me worry?" Whatever happens at the polls this year and in 2024, it isn't likely to affect me much. I'm not likely to live long enough to
see the full effects of American apathy and ignorance. Despite what the idiots are saying, I think we're living in grand times. These days I'm
mostly a spectator enjoying the show. When I get outside, away from: television, the internet, politicians and "influencers", I see a lot of
happy prosperous people.
As far as Herschel goes, he's a retrumplican. For a lot of people, that's all they need to know. Conservative yack about their, LOL,
"values" is obviously deep bullshit. The only thing they really care
about is power, because they think they can use it to turn back the
clock to when they were young and happy.
