Retired #Aging populations contribute non-monetary value to the economy. Because this is not counted, they are painted as a burden. Aging populations shift us from the market economy further to the old school gift economy. This scares rich people. If you can't monetize a form of labor, they can't steal it. They can also split the population in hopes of removing health care and pensions or retirements from older people. We have no shortage of work, or resources, we have rich people hoarding it all.
If we had efficient government run infrastructure, food distribution, healthcare, education and public housing, the amount of resources we needed would be halved. But they don't want us to think that a better world could exist, just this is the only possible way to run the world and this factor will make it unlivable. they are correct, under the current system the " #PopulationCollapse " is unsustainable because its inefficient as hell. Billionaire's entire existence is one of inefficiency to the greater planet. Famines don't exist because of natural disasters, we make enough food as a planet to feed 3 times the people. they are caused by political decisions. When people are paid their actual value, the baby bust will fix itself.

A stunning example of regulatory failure with the scientists involved dramatically underestimating the seriousness of the situation.

Collapse of the Grand Banks cod fishery.

Or at least that is how they're telling the story here.
Anyone seen what the scientists have to say?
Were they under immense political pressure to allow fishing to continue?
An example of political interference in science?

What you got Fediverse?

Cod Moratorium in Newfoundland and Labrador

Newfoundland and Labrador's historic cod fisheries attracted fishing fleets for five centuries before being shut down indefinitely.

Fears that falling birth rates in US could lead to population collapse are based on faulty assumptions

While the changes in population structure that accompany low birth rates are real, the impact of these changes has been dramatically overstated.

South Korea had the lowest birth rate on Earth.
Now it just went up for the first time in 9 years.
Could this be the first real reversal of global demographic collapse?

@caboolture Makes me wonder how many young and old of all genders will continue to lie, steal, rob, go to war, commit acts of terror and genocide just so their crazy leader can accelerate the demise of life on Earth? #Inflection #demographics #populationcollapse #deludedpollitics #FearAndHate #NoJoy #Earth #EarthFirst #FascistNarcissistsLast

#overpopulation #PopulationCollapse
Every #billionaire who has ever screamed about over or under population. WERE THEMSELVES THE CAUSE!
Want more babies? Pay people more.
Want less babies? Increase #education especially for women, make #healthcare free, make family planning free.

Worried there are not enough resources and #climatechange is going to kill us? The top 1% produce 29% of all #greenhousegasses , the bottom billion produce 1%. Invest in science to create a green revolution.

They are sounding the alarm about problems they created and blaming the average individual with no power as being selfish.

"#DonaldTrump is returning, artificial intelligence is maturing, the planet is warming, and the global fertility rate is collapsing.

To look at any of these stories in isolation is to miss what they collectively represent: the unsteady, unpredictable emergence of a different world. Much that we took for granted over the last 50 years — from the climate to birthrates to political institutions — is breaking down; movements and technologies that seek to upend the next 50 years are breaking through."

Four trends are converging to make life much scarier.

The New York Times
And here we were believing the world is over populated and the population is actually collapsing. Don't overlook X as a news source.

"Birth rates have been collapsing worldwide. If the current compounding effect continues you would see many countries become 5% of their current size within 3 generations. Most countries should view the birth rate as the single biggest problem they need to solve."

X (formerly Twitter)

Countries are getting serious about population collapse. Meanwhile the US tries to force rape victims to carry babies.

No chance. The way we are destroying the ability of the planet to provide enough #food for the current #population means that it will be going down rapidly a lot sooner than 2084. And it won't be in a nice way either.

Clearly UN 'demographers' are simply ignoring the signs of the times and the disruption to our unsustainable food 'system' that is happening now.

My prediction: If you are not growing your own food by 2040, then you won't be eating. And if you are, then marauding bands of hungry armed thugs will be trying to steal it from you.
