RE: RE: The Depopulation Bomb And College

What you state is absolutely true and something the politicians and talking heads on television never mention.

As I stated in an above comment, the first generation is unskilled and tends to gravitate towards the lower end, manual jobs. The economic impact is felt when their kids, the ones who are schooled and have the contacts, enter the work force. That is where the boost in productivity enters.

The problem with the pension is you end up with an upside down economic situation followed by social unrest. The only thing politicians know (around the world) is how to grab more money. This means increasing taxes on those working.

When enough of the remaining younger people get taxes to death to support the older generations, they rebel.

We see this in China as there is a movement called sit down or something like that. The generation basically just says we are not going to bust our ass to support those who went before us (and screwed it all up).

That can quickly become a problem.
