The question is what will happen in Africa, particularly sub-saharan Africa.

The same thing, it is just behind the curve. One of the big factors driving the birth rate is actually urbanization and population density. Africa is urbanizing at a fast rate, like Asia 30 years ago.

I understand that there are some ghost cities, empty ones in China.

African migration should be directed there.

I often see successful couples in good marriages and good genetics having one child, sometimes not even that....if our best and our brightest aren’t willing to make babies, then it’ll be left to those with poor genetics, income, education, etc...

Mormons are often engaged before they even enter college.....

about the Africa birth rate......birth rate is one thing, staying alive is another.....many children die from disease/malnutrition.....malaria is still a killer...

I like this idea, he is closing the borders and hoping he can keep Hungry as Hungry not change the demographics of the entire country he is EXTREMELY popular there also, AND he can’t stand Soros!!! I am telling you this whole immigration CRAP world wide is pissing citizens of each country off just as we are pissed off here!!!

It’s overcrowded in Asia. Rest of the world? Not really.

it also depends WHERE in Asia - if you head to Singapore or Bangladesh or to the giant megapoli of Beijing, Bombay etc yes.

But if you head to the countryside of india or china or even more so Mongolia - you can go hundreds of miles without seeing anyone

Hungary is struggling with a population shortfall due largely to low childbearing rates.

Struggling? That is one way to look at it or perhaps the population normalizing to the reality of a post industrial Europe? I think its the latter.

or you have an aging/social security crisis like the kind that is keeping japan’s economy stagnant.

A temporary problem with a definite END POINT.
