To stop their population implosions, countries are turning to immigration, stimulating birth rates and strengthening social services. None of them might be enough – and the long-term fix might be a radical one
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida had a grim message. The country’s extremely low birth rate had placed the nation’s future in peril.
“Japan is standing on the verge of whether we can continue to function as a society,” he declared in a speech in January to the country’s national legislature, the Diet.
“Focusing attention on policies regarding children and child-rearing is an issue that cannot wait and cannot be postponed.”
Interesting read. Nothing can be done about Canada, mass immigration will not solve population decline but will increase societal destruction.
