    Did you read the article?

    I don’t get what your point is. Are you trying to argue that a rapidly ageing population will cause no problems?

      It will not cause a major problem.

      Certainly nothing can’t be solved by importing immigrants.

      Certainly not more problems than somehow forcing people to have more kids.

        Read the article I posted. There are significant challenges beginning and more expected in several countries, Japan, Korea, and more, due to a rapidly aging population.

        But if you wish to be contrarian and insist everything will be fine, whatever. I don’t really care.

              Well we need to prevent an aging population right? There are only two ways to do that. Either we start killing old people or we forcefully impregnate women and pop out babies faster than the death and emigration rate.

              An aging population is a huge problem right? We can’t let it happen right? Look at the disaster that’s happening in Japan right now right? They are having a huge problem with an aging population right?

              Right?

                I have no idea what the fuck you are on about, but you are arguing with yourself.

                  Is an aging population a major problem or not? If so should we do something about it or not?

                  You raised the alarm and in fact said we are going to suffer the same fate that has befallen Japan if we don’t do something. Presumably Japan is suffering due to an aging population right?

                    Is an aging population a major problem or not?

                    Yes, it is a fact that it is already causing problems, and likely will become major. Read the article.

                    You raised the alarm and in fact said we are going to suffer the same fate that has befallen Japan if we don’t do something. Presumably Japan is suffering due to an aging population right?

                    You added “if we don’t do something”. I just said what is happening in Japan is a worry. Never said we would be like that, never said there is anything to be done about it.
