BEIJINGâChina on Thursday said it would formally end its notorious one-child policy, which was intended to curb a surging population but has since been blamed for looming demographic problems in the worldâs No. 2 economy. In a brief statement on Thursday, Chinaâs official Xinhua News Agency said all Chinese would be allowed to have two children. It didnât provide a time frame or any other details.

China is turning away from abortion?
Bernie Sanders won’t be happy to hear that.
>> looming demographic problems in the worldâs No. 2 economy
Gonna take a few years or so to walk THAT one back.
>> They need soldiers for war.
And those soldiers need girlfriends. The US is adopting a different strategy — encouraging a homo military.
As knarf said on an earlier thread, “Jesus come quickly.”
You make a very valid point. But the one-child policy also resulted in a shortage of females because Chinese couples preferred male babies, resulting in abortions or even infanticide of female babies.
official Xinhua News Agency said all Chinese would be allowed to have two children
Isn’t that special.
They’ll now be allowed to have two sons.
I agree.
China is becoming a major competitor, and possible opponent.
Our businesses have completely sold out our own country. Bring them back to America.
I take it to mean that there is a dearth of young women to marry
with an absence of child bearing women, there can be no population
Business is leaving China
Business owners face too many hurdles in the form of corruption and high taxes
Why is this policy “notorious”? Is it because it limits adult decisions or kills babies?
That cultural affinity for boys over girls will continue, but the Chinese are too late. The cultural materialism practiced in Asian will simply continue on with people having few children if any children, except for the religious.
Lose your soul as a nation by turning away from God and it’s hard to get it back.
The one-child policy coupled with sex-selective abortions of females has resulted in China having the most unbalanced sex ratio of any country. Coupled with the growing affluence of the coastal regions, this means that there is a huge market for importing brides from poorer areas, meaning that the ratios are even worse in those areas. This is a sociological disaster unfolding in slow motion that's taken decades to create and won't be solved anytime soon.
Bingo!
Going to need them in 10-15 years so they need to start now. Their current glut of youths will be going soon and they face population crash without breeders.
.....Or rather Jesus, help Your followers to get the good news of the Gospel out. Amen
Neither will Al Gore or every other Democrat for that matter.
It is never too late to repent and believe.
Their current population indicates that they only selectively enforced the one child per family anyway.
That is true. The Atonement of Jesus Christ is infinite. Some Chinese are embracing it as a status symbol, others sincerely. They are the religious, along with Muslims, who will have children because it is godly to do so.
China is over. Let’s not let that happen to America.
I’m not questioning your assertion, except to point out that last year America ran an all-time trade deficit with China.
This year, is looking to do that, yet again.
Every single year, our trade situation deteriorates.
Rather it will be China to send the Christian missionaries, with Africa over to America and the west bring the Gospel of Jesus.
