It's Not the Economy You Should Be Watching. It's the POPULATION

The economy gets all the attention, but the population may be the real crisis hiding underneath it. Birth rates across the developed world are collapsing, schools are emptying, populations are aging, and fewer young workers are being left to support everyone else.

This video explores why Americans are having fewer children and why the explanation goes far beyond money. Housing rules make family-sized apartments harder to build, car-seat regulations make larger families more expensive, and modern lifestyles are making it harder for people to meet, date, and start families in the first place.
We also look at what’s already happening in places like Japan and South Korea, where governments have spent billions trying to reverse demographic decline with cash payments and family incentives, with limited success.

The problem isn’t simply that people don’t want children, modern society has gradually become harder to navigate for anyone who wants several of them. And once a country’s population begins shrinking, fixing the economy may be the easy part.
