Maybe we need to rethink economics in a way they don’t require an endless growth of the population like we’re a cancer to the earth. Maybe Bezos could pay a bit more than 1.1% in taxes, an extra 1% would free a cool couple of billion for retirement. And so could Musk, and same with the companies, a bit from Amazon, a bit from Microsoft, and the rest of S&P500…
I’m all for a bit of population decline. The system needs to crash to get rebalanced.
Worst thing is, even though population grows, the retirement age does aswell.
Having more people now just mean higher expectations from the generation after them. It is just a temporary fix thate current generation hopes to throw onto the next and hopefully die before it all gets fucked.
A positive feedback loop (and this is not meant in a positive way).
Wasn’t planning to respond to the negativity wave, but white supremacism? Huh?
I guess some Muricans are so oversensitive on the issue they see racism in everything. I come from a country that barely has any black/hispanic population at all (simply historically), and same with any sort of supremacism - we don’t have racial aspect as a cornerstone of our culture, and I can barely see any intersection here.
Do you mean I supposedly suggest for white people specifically to get more babies to ethnically cleanse the world or something? Because I never said or meant that, and couldn’t care less about people of which race or origin improve the reproduction rates.
Unfortunately, we need lots-a them
Why exactly? There is enough people on the planet.
Emergency rations.
Because demographics.
If there won’t be enough children, there won’t be anyone to sustain the economy as we retire.
Not only will this make us work to death, but also the decreased productivity and natural death will generally tank the economy down very badly.

We can’t keep doing this to the planet. The system is broken. We need a smaller human population regardless of the effect on the economy.
If only there were a way to like… Import millions of people who could prop up a declining population.
“Everyone needs to keep breeding so my ponzi scheem style retirement savings will still work”
Plan to die at your job like the rest of us.

Fuck. The. Economy.
Thinly veiled white supremacist bullshit. I wonder what demographic you’re referring to? Hmmmmm…

No, the fuck, we do not
