That is political problem. We have designed our world for constant economic growth and governments are reliant on growing tax base. It doesn't need to be that way.
- ta0987 7y agoI'm not sure what you're arguing for. The faster the population falls, the harder the problem is to solve. Whether it's political or not.
- throwawayhhakdl 7y agoI mean, a violent purge of non contributing old people would solve this. But barring that, a world without economic growth is grim. Tons of people virtuously declare that it’s ok if society doesn’t get richer but they don’t really understand what that means and how awful that makes societies function.
