Seriously?
From The Article you linked to:
China risks growing old before it gets rich
As China’s population becomes richer and more urban, it's also getting older...
Extend the graphic out a few years and its an inverted pyramid. I'm sorry you're unaware that working age population means much more to a country than simply the supply of labor...
- adventured 11y agoYou're not in any way explaining how China has a working age supply problem when they have 400+ million people intentionally being held in subsistence farming because the state has nothing else for those people to do. They have 400+ million 'farmers' with nothing to do. You can't have less of a working age labor problem than that. It proves they have a vast oversupply of working age labor. Unless for some reason you think China needs ~35% of its population to be farmers, while the US needs only 1%, and no other developed nation needs anywhere near that 35% level. Please explain what happens to those 400 million surplus farm workers if China allows their farming efficiency to rise.
