Longevity is an increasing problem for the EU that seemingly has been solved by immigration.

[Koblenz]

The population decline cannot be halted

Really? Do they need more demonstrations in how to make babies?

[ken5050]

Maybe we could offer to pay any Mexican here in the USA illegally $5000 to move to Germany..

[The_Republican]

Too bad they don't share border with Mehico.

I think young Germans need to learn two things so they will survive when they grow up:

Turkish and the Koran.

Caged animals do not breed well, what is true at the zoo also applies to socialist nations.

[Salvation]

**Germany's population decline 'cannot be halted **

Sure it can!!!

Start having more babies.

[dr_who_2]

I guess the German men have no balls.

[expatpat]

Many of the younger Germans are going to leave the country if the load becomes too great, thereby making the problem even worse.....

[bannie]

I thought that the floodgates of the East filled 'em up.

[Chickensoup]

The remaining 61 per cent were potential members of the workforce.

Maybe they should send half of them home to have babies. Dumb bunnies!

Both the decline and ageing of Germany's population are expected to impact on the economy because there will be fewer people in the working age between 20 and 65 years.

Fewer slaves to support their socialist utopia.

[Lee N. Field]

"The population decline cannot be halted,"

The Germans have forgotten how to do nookie?

[westmichman]

Once they get all the women in their burqas they will have more babies. It works for the Mooslims.

[Plutarch]

Well, it could.

(1) Abandon socialism. This leads to...
(2) Economic boom.
(3) Then: Large tax deduction for children.

Problem solved! No such thing as can't, it is won't.

[gogogodzilla]

Whadda frigging stupid article.

Germany's population decline cannot be halted? Bullsh@t!

If every fertile woman in German had 4 kids... then their population would boom.

So it is possible to fix this problem.

Therefore it CAN be halted.

(Germans just don't WANT to halt it.)

[Wuli]

Sounds like some good real estate should be already starting to become bargains.

[Zack Nguyen]

By 2050 only half the population will be workforce aged, while 30 per cent will be over 65 and just 15 per cent under 20 years, the report predicts.

That is truly unbelievable. Europe's social security system will be dead and buried long before then.

Longevity is an increasing problem for the EU that seemingly has been solved by immigration.

Indeed. But at what cost to Europe's security and pluralistic culture?

[Kitten Festival]

They dropped themselves into this, they're gonna have to find some new people.

[Cacique]

Fly me over and line me up with a dozen young Fraueleins and I'll do my part to help this terrible situation.
