    Hypothesis 1: China have invented time travel and its residents age more quickly due to the resulting subjective time experience. Hypothesis 2: Given a decades-long one-child-per-family policy, China's demographic curve has fewer young people, and hence the older population, aging in a conventional manner, contributes more to the mean age increase of the population than elsewhere. https://2oqz471sa19h3vbwa53m33yj-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/china_2018-2050phanyxx.jpg https://2oqz471sa19h3vbwa53m33yj-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-...
