Japan ‘on verge of no longer functioning’ after birth rate plummets to record new low
-
I'm not disagreeing, just saying China isn't the only country with worse working conditions than the US. From a global perspective things are actually pretty good in the US.

Known I am a bit obtuse, or perhaps litteral, but I am Norwegian and have more words for snow. Think English have more words for snow. Think texture.

Jokes on you, I don't have healthcare.

The other groups largely voted with evangelicals to make our country a fascist nation about 60 40. They don't deserve as a group to be considered distinct

Fertility rates are low because people don't have enough time to raise kids they're too busy working 80 hours a week

If Catholics, Evangelicals, etc etc etc all don't deserve to be associated with Jesus who does again?

I think Jesus says it:
I Never Knew You
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

The downside is the huge geriatric population will need more and more resources until that situation becomes part of the new stable norm.
That exactly is the problem. When half the population is too old to work, who's going to be providing for them all? Someone still needs to produce stuff.
It could be Japan is entering a stable period where needs and resources are predictable and known. Sounds like a higher standard of living to me.
Good luck predicting human needs and behaviour.

How about they stop being so god damn xenophobic and let more foreigners become citizens? Surely a larger population of younger people would help the situation?
