If your population doesn't have a fertility rate of 2.1, you end up with the economic dead weight of more retirees than workers.
Any person without two children is a future economic burden that will necessitate the import of foreigners to take care of them. A low fertility rate is the death knell of civilization.
What you're actually saying is that the idea of a state pension, as popularized by European countries, is a deal with the devil.
No, I'm not.
It matters not where the money to support the elderly comes from - what matters is that there are enough young people to do it. All the money in the world doesn't make 100 workers support 200 retirees. All it does is give you the money to bring in 100 foreigners to pick up the slack.
And now your country is full of foreigners. GG, civilization collapses.
The answer to demographic collapse certainly isn’t foreign hordes who represent a net loss in productivity for your country as they collect nonstop gibs.
Automation could theoretically solve the shortfall, except we only use automation to eliminate workers and multiply profits for corporations.
The answer is the same as it has always been. We just can’t say it out loud anymore.
You will notice that Japan has gone to great lengths to avoid filling their country with foreigners.
Instead, they lead the world in robotics and automation.That's why Japan still has a large manufacturing sector despite its shrinking workforce and western nations full of 3rd worlders do not - because 3rd worlders also get old, and then you need EVEN MORE OF THEM.
In 100 years, the west will be a sea of shitholes full of ethnic tensions.
Japan, if it doesn't fall to wokeism, will still be Japanese.
God, you're a fool.

Read it and weep.
I'm pretty sure people retiring should have their own savings. I started saving for an early retirement at 21.

I'm fully on board with cutting government spending, especially on women.
Also, haven't people been fearmongering Japan collapsing for literal decades now?
USA Q2 22 GDP : -0.6%
Japan Q2 22 GDP : +3.5%
Someone tell the stormcucks, they did it way before Israel, or even America, was a dream in someone's head.
No, I'm not.

Expel the foreigner, silence the woman.
