- Bancakes 5y agoYes and why arbitrarily constrain yourself to Africa. Why not China? Why not the top 10% of each country
- drivebycomment 5y agoChina's population growth has already mostly stopped. In 2021, they had 0.03% growth. https://worldpopulationreview.com/countries/china-population https://worldpopulationreview.com/countries/china-population Focusing on Africa isn't arbitrary. They are where the majority of future human population growth will be coming from.
- Bancakes 5y agoAgain I ask, why do you want "booming" populations and not "work-ready, healthy" populations, aka 1sigma upwards?
- Someone 5y agoAre you saying Africans aren’t “work-ready, healthy”? I guess you mean “highly educated” I would think that, in aging populations, many of the jobs most difficult to fulfill by count would be in service jobs (care homes, nursing, Uber eats cyclists, bus drivers, etc) There likely will be millions of people in Africa willing to take on such a job and capable of doing so. Also, chances will be higher that those people would want to emigrate than, say, Chinese nurses, as there will already be plenty of demand in China.
