where women are now making decisions about the number of children they would like to have
(thank you, contraceptives!)
whereas the avg number of children was something ridiculous like +6
its falling
and i say not fast enough
the worry is that the older age (dependent) population is rising much faster
and its going to be very difficult to support that population in future
the concern is not that there are too few human beings on this planet
its why i support more relaxed migration policies.
