The Economic Collapse That is Coming for Everyone...Except This One Country

This is a chart of the record high credit card debt.
This is a chart of the soaring, adjusted real estate prices in the united states.
And This is a chart showing the rapid increase in the price of consumer goods.
At one point or another, you have probably heard someone talk about one of these charts or topics. And how they point to a bleak future for the world economy.
But there is one thing that no one is talking about, that leaves all of these other economic problems in the dust.
In fact, this chart may be the scariest economic signal, that we have ever seen, and yet no one is paying attention to it.
This little line right here shows with almost certainty, that the global economy as we know it, may be coming to an end, and there isn’t anything we can do about it.
When you think about things that are correlated with humanity, you probably think of something like our ability to adapt, maybe our pollution, maybe our architecture, or maybe something else.
But one thing that might be correlated with humanity, more than anything else, is growth.
Whether its growth of our intelligence, technology, or productivity, humanity for thousands of years has had a general upward trajectory for many important things in relation to our society.
But there is one thing that nearly always grows, no matter what. One thing that has grown through every world war, every pandemic, every golden era, and every dark age, is also something that we based our modern economy off of today.
And that thing, is our population. During world war 1 and 2, despite losing tens of millions of people worldwide, the global population still grew during that decade.
In fact, going back throughout all of human history, there’s only a handful of events that caused a temporary global population decline.
One was the Mongolian conquest in the 1200s, which may have killed upward of 10% of the world population.
The black plague in the 1300s decreased the world population by about 25%.
The crisis of the third century in the roman empire, which was a combination of a plague, hyperinflation, weather events, and foreign invasions, caused a rapid population decline in large cities like alexandria.
And at the same time that this was going on in rome, the crisis of the three kingdoms in China resulted in one of the sharpest population declines in recorded history. The three kingdoms war saw estimates of china losing potentially 60% of its population during the third century.
However, there was one population decline that no one talks about. One that lasted for thousands of years. And was not caused by a war, natural disaster, or pandemic. This population decline came from something different.
It came from a new technology, and the birth of a new economy. You see, humans up until about 12,000 years ago, were still hunters and gatherers. We would go out into the wilderness looking to eat pretty much anything whether it was plants or animals.
But then, something changed. You see, someone in syria came up with an idea that would change humanity. Instead of going out and looking for food from plants, why dont we try to grow our own, right by our village? And so, that one person planted rye, waited for it to grow, and then, voila. The domestication of plants was discovered by humanity.
Now, you might assume that this technology would have been good for humanity, as it allowed humans to have a consistent food supply, and therefore, would lead to humans being able to reproduce more and grow the human population. But thats not what happened. In fact, it may have been somewhat detrimental to humans for thousands of years.
You see, immediately after humans learned how to domesticate plants, life expectancy decreased, infant mortality rose, and the average human height decreased by nearly 4 inches. Along those lines, humans began developing new diseases like iron deficiency anemia, osteoporosis, and obesity. This was largely because humans transitioned to a new type of economy and lifestyle where there were only a few types of plants available to eat. So, it decreased the diversity of our food, in order to increase the overall supply of food, while also allowing humans to become sedentary for the first time in history.

Some economists have projected that both the U.S. and parts of Europe could slip into a recession for a portion of 2023. A global recession, defined as a contraction in annual global per capita income, is more rare because China and emerging markets often grow faster than more developed economies.

But then they would also need to have waaaaaay more treated water for agriculture, and for industrial processes.

Egypt imports most of it's food, so when the West goes, so do they, unless they start growing a LOT more food. This goes for most African countries to a lesser extant, and sadly many African countries' "leaders" have used hunger as their primary weapon many times in the past. All of that said, after a generation of Malthusian-esque population corrections to meet whatever the then-current food supply will allow, I could see some countries in Africa ending up ok in the long run, IF they are willing to set aside their cultural & political differences for a common goal of survival, but that is a giant-sized IF.

How come Africa doesn't produce enough food for itself? The continent isn't that densely populated. 128/sq mi for Africa vs 96/sq mi for the US. Yeah, about 1/3 of that is desert, but a decent chunk of the American west is arid too. And the US is generally only able to grow crops for 1/2 the year (May to October) whereas Africa is mostly frost free year round. I will say, Egypt is overcrowded. But South and Central Africa seem fairly lightly populated.

I heard that Nietzsche said that we are the most domesticated animal on earth, based on our trained behavior, etc. When you look at it from this perspective, it's really true. I also think it's unavoidable that the general population is viewed in aggregate by those making decisions for us, and indeed we have been "domesticated" in a number of ways. A good example of this might be the prison system. Consider how, over time, the justice and prison system filters aggressive and volatile people out of the population. Less of those types of people procreate, which is unintentionally, selective breeding (in a good way, I would say).

Urban planners say Mr. el-Sisi would do better to fix his broken cities than to build new ones. The cheapest apartment runs to $80,000, once construction was completed. “None of this is for us,” said Mr. Mahmood, gesturing first to the marble-fronted buildings, then to a billboard bearing Mr. el-Sisi’s image: “It’s for him.”

Short summary - The text discusses the potential consequences of global population decline, highlighting how it could lead to a perpetual global recession. However, some countries, like Egypt, might be able to take advantage of their population growth and prosper in the future. Egypt's economic plan, Egypt Vision 2030, aims to modernize its economy and improve the standard of living, which could potentially lead to the country becoming the last prosperous economy of this era. Additionally, the author mentions some ways countries can mitigate population decline, such as offering incentives for parenthood, raising the retirement age, and encouraging more people to join the workforce. The text also explores the long-term implications of population decline, speculating on the future of humanity, the potential fusion of humans with robotics, and the possibility of humans becoming extinct.

The biggest factor for these countries with increasing population is education. Take Nigeria as an example, 20% of kids(5-14 years old) not in school in the whole world are Nigerian. Only about 60% of people are literate, it's similar for places like Pakistan as well.

[@PabloGambaccini]

Humanity is accostumed to superficial growth or external growth. It relates with the concept of quantity and of dominance. To overcome our actual paradigm, growth should start to be internal, more about quality and cooperation. For example, more investment in quality healthcare, less in unneficient means of transportation, aka cars.

[@ReseCema]

The video discusses issues such as American credit card debt, housing prices, and consumer goods prices, which all point to a bleak outlook for the world economy. However, the video highlights an even more serious issue: the stagnation or decline of population growth.

[@vaticinus]

Nigeria is the only country in Africa that can produce all of its own food and the inputs (fertilizer and machinery) that go into that food production. Even if Egypt turned all its farmland into food production it still can't grow enough to feed its people today let alone in the future. As the world deglobalizes Egypt is actually in the worst position amongst African countries. Nigeria has already over taken Egypt as the largest economy in Africa. There is absolutely no way Egypt becomes more influential than Nigeria in the coming decades.

[@doodlePimp]

Just a few policy changes in some of the bigger countries can turn this around. It is not something to be worried about. This is also the first time I have heard any 3rd party be positive about Egypt's new city project. It is generally referred to as out of touch with the problems the population faces. Isolating all the important institutions and investment projects far away from the poorest in Cairo (Who will now be out of sight) will only widen the gap within the population.

[@Zacflk]

All the countries you listed import huge amounts of food from the west and others nations to keep their population fed. Additionally, most of these countries have seen their population grow extremely fast in the last few decades and none of these nations have participated in the development of the modern world, meaning that they do not have the technological, infrastructural or political requirements to become a world power or even a stable nation. All these countries have massive sociological & political issues and a very low skilled workforce, which does not invite someone to be hopeful about their future. Finally, almost all of these countries are highly exposed to water scarcity and extreme climate change catastrophes, whether it is drought, cyclones or rising sea levels on their biggest cities. It is therefore very unlikely that any of these countries will actually become a superpower or even a successfull countryin the future, unless they address all these issues and focus on solving these. I will add as well, that some countries with declining or stable populations have been highly successfull in the last decades despite their population shrinking, such as Russia, Japan, Germany or smaller ones like Czech Republic or Poland which have seen their standards of living and development levels skyrocket since the 1990s. Also, in a very technological focus world, population does not equal success or power. If that was true countries like actually Egypt, India, Indonesia or others would already be highly powerful countries, which they are not really. To finish, some other countries which do have a highly skilled workforce, stable political conditions as well as high technological advancements are more likely to be or become more powerful and successful in the future, I am thinking of western ones (Australia, Brazil, France, Canada) and developing ones or Asian nations (South Korea, Turkey, Iran, Mexico). That is my analysis based on what I know and researched. Feel free to add some information, countradict my analysis and bring up some more information, data and opinions. Always great to discuss.

[@aleksandrsmironovs3566]

Baltic states were declining for 30 years. In fact, we're one of the fastest shrinking places on Earth. Despite that, for the past 30 years we were also one of the fastest economically growing places in Europe. So, tying economic growth to population isn't really a working idea.

[@2scots]

Very interesting

[@jimmcneal5292]

I doubt countries mentioned in video will really become superpowers(most likely will be factories with cheap workforce). As for population decline I think there will be shift of dominance from liberalism/socialism towards some form of traditionalism(and there will be rural communities with ultra high birth rates that will support declining urban population; cities will continue to grow more and more gedonistic and birth rates there would continue plummeting to zero, but with modern advancements relatively small rural population will support them on relatively high level). And probably western countries will be first to experience this drastic change.

[@dh510]

I believe the most realistic outcome is going to be that automation and artificial intelligence are going to be so advanced when the world wide population starts declining, that the people living then won't see a bad economic downturn. A smaller and more efficient population might be the best thing to happen to the planet and to the human race. The most important thing is that we don't drop below ~1 billion people. Opening up new frontiers which grow by starting to colonize the solar system would be a good idea as a safeguard, in case the total collapse of our species is still on the table and should be done beforehand and before we are at risk of exhausting the natural resources of our planet, which would lead to us getting trapped.

A superpower is not how big your population is (it still must be a decent size), but how technological, economic and military poweress in projected beyond your shores (in that you have dominant global influence). In this way, for example, India is a very populous country, but it is not a superpower. I believe that the global population downturn will happen (globally about the mid century) and then accelerate for a century. This means that we have a decade or so left for standard growth economic models, which will get more and more useless later. Sustainable economics then comes with a different caveat; how to get more with less. This means that increasing mechanization may fill some of the gaps, but people will still have to work for 40 or 50 years of their lives on average. Lower birthrates and more frugality. Not an exciting venture,

[@lucieciepka1031]

Maybe population decline was a problem 6000 years ago, but I think that education is more important then birth rate today. Having enormous amounts of children and not having enough food to feed them is a different kind of problem. In Africa every 10 years there is a big crop fail, caused by climate cycle, that will get worse with climate change. Where are the gouvernements that will make provisions and avoid needles starvation?

This video is a very good example of a very bad idea to base economic models in population growth ALONE. Sorry, I am not on board with you with this. Aside from that, Egypt is one of the most critically vulnerable nations of the world today in face of climate change. Their survival literally depends on one single river system, the Nile. The humongous amount of population in a thin strip of land cannot be supported if the Nile collapses. They should know that they cannot afford to sustain that kind of population growth while largely depending on only one resource.

[@dzcav3]

You need a lot more than just lots of people for an economy to have healthy growth. You need a good culture (work ethic, honesty, education, common language, common values, lack of strife, etc.). Then you need a good geography (protection from enemies, ports, rivers, arable land, water, mineral resources, energy, etc.).

I would think that people generally have more kids when the are optimistic of their future. One of the biggest problems today is that we're being sold the message that the world's future looks bleak. If it isn't climate change alarmism it's food shortages and economic uncertainty. Its not very inspiring to say the least and over time almost becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. There are some religions however that encourage people to have children, Islam for example. Regardless of how distraught the world is, their faith will hold more sway over their decisions. Will be interesting to see how the world is going to develope.

Expect that developed countries will continue attracting immigrants, even if the world as a whole is shrinking. This is nicely demonstrated in former communist countries in Europe. They all have sub-replacement birth rates and yet they are still losing population to west European countries. What will most probably happen in the next 50 years is that EU as a whole will continue attracting immigrants. These new immigrants will come from Africa, Asia, middle east and south America - even if this means that population in emigration nations will dry out. As for Egypt, they are suffering from lack of water. They cannot feed the population they have today and the situation is about to get worse because of the dam in Ethiopia. I expect them to be one of the countries to lose population.

Good video. At the end, where you hint at extinction, while we might go extinct, it won't be by population collapse. As soon as nations fail, the laws that led to population decline end. Women's rights, working long hours, high home prices, all of that goes out the window. The population starts to grow again and new nations are formed. America doubled its workforce starting in the 1960s as women entered the workforce. This is good for industry and the tax base, but it wrecked the home life. Birthrates/divorce rates/marriage rates/age of marriage, all bear out that women in the workforce started the population decline. How's a woman supposed to hold down a 40hr/wk job and raise kids? Men and women opted out of kids, dual income no kids cohort took off. In the 1970s people were watching Soylent Green and fearing a dystopian future of too many people. The politicians got together and engineered a solution. That solution is currently playing out. China did "One Child" starting in 1980, and America did social engineering. Calhoun's mice studies are just a small tip of what America has researched as far as controlling a population. This is all by design.

Egypt doesn't control it's own water. Egypt will never be a major global player until it controls Lake Victoria. The Nile has 3 sources and Egypt controls none of them.
