Then we probably need to stop immigration until we can get a handle on it.
- bergenty 4y agoStop the professionals that create a vast majority of the wealth or build more housing? It’s not really a tough decision.
- norwalkbear 4y agoHow does that lower the population?
- lazide 4y agoI guess the assumption is the lower earning natives will leave and go somewhere else?
- bergenty 4y agoIt doesn’t, it improves the situation so a massively underpopulated land can support more and grow.
- tjs8rj 4y agoHow can land be underpopulated? What happens when you don’t have much labor is the labor prices go up (wages increase). I can’t help but suspect from your other comments in this thread you are just trying to justify your a priori want for more immigration, why?
- bergenty 4y agoI think we can safely say a place that has an extremely low population density and actively pays people to go inhabit parts of it is very underpopulated relative to other places in the world.
- tjs8rj 4y agoYou’re saying this same thing all up and down this thread but have already been disproven on the “professionals that create the vast majority of the wealth”.
- bergenty 4y agoSo in two places on the thread and specific responses? Are you purporting that professionals don’t create value and generate wealth for society, where exactly has this been disproven. Not to mention, across the border in the US where we have statistics for this- Indian Americans have founded 90 of the top 500 unicorns in the US and generated $430 billion dollars of wealth for the economy. There’s no reason it wouldn’t hold up in Canada as well.
- bergenty 4y agoJust think about that 3% of the population starting 1/5th of all US billion dollar+ companies
