because? If it's because we aren't fertile enough, or our education system isn't good enough, or we aren't paying enough for certain jobs, why not address this?
I'm interested to know whether you think there should be any upper limit to the population of the UK: 100m? 500m? more?
- dijit 8y agoBecause we have an aging population, and pensions are the single largest government expense. (more than double the NHS, which is also heavily burdened by our aging populaton)
- growlist 8y agoSo then why not encourage the population to breed, rather than sourcing our fertility abroad?!
- JAlexoid 8y agoBecause forcing people to breed isn't exactly an efficient tool. Also - a population highly burdened with a lot of children tends to produce less value. It keeps more people out of work.
