China was likely the source of the virus and they allowed it to get out, but there's no denying that once it really started to break out, they locked down the country and got things in check really quick. The reason it was easy for them is that they were able to quarantine people by law and force businesses to shut down without rebellion. They also went through all public places and hit everything with sanitization crews. Here in America, most lockdown efforts and mask requirements were met with defiance. Heck we even had people throwing large parties just to spite the ordinance. Can't do that crap in China unless you want them to swat your party and throw you all in jail. Due to China's governmental privacy, we didn't really have a good picture of how well their efforts worked, but it's clear that handled it better than we did in America.

Wow, this is quite a lengthy and detailed report. China has an incompetent, totalitarian government that makes one bad decision after another. They were better off in the 1990s under Jiang Zemin's leadership and, before him, Deng Xiaoping. It was not a free country, but it was open to foreign investment and sent many young people abroad to study. One-child, begun in 1979, had not yet had a major impact on society in the early 1990s. By 2000, as the first generation of only children entered college and careers, and prepared to raise families themselves, things began to fall apart. It turns out that humans generally want and need siblings; it deeply socializes children, teaching them about cooperation, affection, and dependency. Also, without siblings, future generations will no longer have cousins, aunts and uncles, or any kind of extended family. A death means the complete termination of a family. In China, families have traditionally been the central foundation of society. The Communist regime inadvertently destroyed this foundation. The kind of self-centered behavior of many young people we are seeing today (in the West as well as in China) seems directly related to the destruction of extended family.

[@garbearfar1394]

It’s pretty amazing seeing how socially inept some Chinese people become from being spoiled only children.

Kind of a limited view of the problem. The demographic problem is a short-term problem. The bigger problem is just having too many people given the resources available. Air and water pollution levels are staggeringly high. Ground water levels are dropping quickly and the remaining water is polluted. Skies are gray with pollution much of the time. Federal and local governments run unsustainable deficits. Social programs are very scarce. They are running out of resources and running up debts. In many ways shrinking the population can be viewed as a good long-term strategy.

With the same amount of resources, the society collapses as many of the lower stratum lose motives. Knowing that tomorrow will only be worse despite their effort, they refuse to work or procreate.

A long term solution to the declining population and Social Security/Medicare problem: Tie retirement age to the number of biological children you have with an exemption given to people born infertile or would have severe health problems having children. If you have zero children, your retirement age will be 71. If you have 1 child, your retirement age will be 69. If you have 2 children, your retirement age will be 65, as normal. If you have 3 or more children, your retirement age will be 64. This benefit should only be available to people who are natural born citizens.

This content is designed for emotional manipulation and sensationalism, it is indicative of poor journalistic practice and an attempt to set an emotive narrative rather than just discus the facts in a professional manner, this trend has occurred all across media, it should be viewed as a mechanism to drive clicks, a reference to check relative accuracy with official certified analytical sources and nothing more, Perhaps you should look at the news reporting of last millennium prior to the Iraq war in 2003, the difference in rhetoric is stark.

USSR technical education ended with it's fall in the US and Western countries, people can get a BS in Engineering and other technical areas they had a different system that worked VERY well students would receive a good but somewhat limited tech education -- much like a 2 yr or associate degree then would enter a 7-year technical apprenticeship program BOTH of this training ended with the collapse of the USSR

[@kenziedayne4234]

So they've had zero tech training for the last 30 years? How do they keep everything running? Power plants, banking and computers, the hackers we're always hearing about?

France is not the only country that isn't getting enough taxes to fund the system...ONE greedy reason...TOO MANY wealthy tax dodgers not being called out by wealthy politicians. Itchy back syndrome is the problem.

[@catherinehourihan3768]

The underlying problem is NOT infertility it is an economic system that relies on continual growth to function. There is a limit to the number of humans earth can sustain therefor we as a global community need to conceptualise an economic and social system beyond the current capitalistic model.

I have a big problem with 'the elderly are a burden on society' rhetoric that these narratives portray. I paid into a scheme, in the UK, that was supposed to give me a living pension at 65. The UK govenment chose to squander that money and used it as an extra tax to fund themselves and their cronies. They now say that the current workforce can't support my pension scheme so I can't claim it until 66 and it failed to keep up with inflation until recently (British pensions are some of the lowest in Europe). It is not me that is a burden it is a failure of the government to ensure that the pension pot was adequate. We were told, when I was at school, that we would only be working a 3 day week and we would have sufficient disposable income to 'enjoy' the extra free time, but the opposite is true, people are being forced to work longer in both weekly terms and age terms to support 'failing' pensions. Again who is to blame, not me.

[@walfman100]

Some how people seem to get that pyramid schemes are doomed to collapses if more people don't buy into them, that is what pensions are, a government mandated pyramid scheme that passes the cost to the fallowing generation. Since everyone is supposed to pay into it that shouldn't be a problem, but the UK like most "1st world" countries populations have plateaued, if not shrunk, meaning that there aren't enough people in the current and coming generations paying into the pension scheme to cover your pension like you did for the generation before yours, let alone keep up with inflation and the devaluation of the British pound. tldr:you weren't paying for your retirement, you were paying for your parents, and there aren't enough young people to cover yours.

[@mikemiller659]

Thats before ALL the migrating started

[@annhans3535]

Same thing in the US. You contribute to social security. When it's time to retire they act like they are giving you free money.

[@AlusiMD]

How does this square with the news that ~21% of the younger generation workforce is unemployed? Is it just the recession/industry flight that they are facing?

[@alsuncat]

In the United States minimum wage was originally intended for teens. With adults doing those jobs and no cost of living increase. No incentive to have kids.

Population in some key countries in the world have drastically decreased because the standard of living has been going down. The world's issues in global war And illness have also contributed. I myself don't have children and that was a conscious choice. Why I would wanna bring children into a world that's unealthy and dangerous for them Is beyond me.

[@kadawamike7770]

[@w2lf]

[@jelly434]

overpopulation is still a global bane, only a handful of grasping oligarchs are desperate for constant growth and ever-increasing tax chattel and wage slaves

[@cchavezjr7]

The world is not overpopulated. There is more than enough food production to feed the world 2 to 3 times over. The problem is infrastructure. It either can't get to the people or stolen and misappropriated due to corruption and also ineptness.

[@burstingwizard975]

Wrong. You need children in order to sustain the population, not necessarily to grow it. A shrinking, aging population is not bad for the "oligarchs", it's bad for everyone else. When your population starts shrinking it causes the quality of life to go in the toilet for the few young people there are. This is part of the reason why the suicide rate in Korea and Japan is so extreme The collapse of society due to low birthrates doesn't matter to the "oligarchs". It doesn't affect them. If the population collapses them they can happily replace the population with immigrants or move to a country that's nice

[@lilianblake]

The answer is right in front of all these governments. We got a baby boom in the 1950’s because the top 1% actually paid their share of taxes. Give people a living wage and they will have babies. Or even better, implement UBI.

This is why China is doing its desperation moves or actions in South East Asia Sea, as their economy is about to collapse due to high population

[@oldleatherhandsfriends4053]

true, China needs less people but who are still working age which is the problem. The populations age in the issue not really the number or lack of births.

Unliving your daughters in favor of sons was not such a great idea? And no it wasn't necessarily bloodline and family name more it was about a retirement plan. You see it's up to the eldest son to take care of the parents when they're older

[@faustinae3927]

If people earned more money, they would have more children. Parents could afford housing food and education. Greed of the companies is at fault. Who wants to live with high debt 🤷‍♀️👍

I have a feeling they just held back and waited. So, that they can have their kids in 2024. The Year of the Dragon. Watch a major baby boom coming.

[@Akutukananu]

Interesting take.

[@ignskeletons]

It's as if you have to provide stability and time for people to form relationships out of work with affordable housing to raise families. This 'work to death' and 24/7 hustle grind is not sustainable for any population. People like me in my 20's have opted to simply not have kids because it's unaffordable. Childcare is also through the roof, China specifically has gender imbalance as a result of one child policy heavily favoring male births in the past.

There will still be more young people in China than in greater Europe so taxation may need to be high, but labor for adding value is still high.
