True. The US is the only 1st world nation expected to have
significantly positive population growth in the next century. That is
only because of our liberal immigration policies. Japan will quickly
die. I think they are already on a negative slope. All of the first
world geriatric welfare economies are going to be in big trouble within
most of our lifetimes. A couple needs to have two children to keep the
population stagnant or slightly negative (accidental death and early
life disease being the negative factors shortening life expectancies).
