China has an atrocious birth rate because the people there do not want kids. They’ve been conditioned for 50 years not to have them, so they don’t.
They get old and there are fewer Chinese to take up the jobs they once had with a large economy.
The old don’t have wealth so they all rely on government assistance. But as people die off in China the country’s economy shrinks and becomes a worse place to invest.
“... the people there do not want kids. They’ve been conditioned for 50 years not to have them, so they don’t...”
That reminds me of another group somewhere, but I just can’t think of it just now...
