Youth population; a time bomb in the making

[tygeade]

While advanced countries are experiencing demographic problems, developing countries are underutilising their youthful population. China, Japan, and some Western nations are giving incentives to families to give birth to more children because of an aging population. In the case of Bangladesh and other developing nations corruption is their main problem.

The youthful population is an advantage because it could propel economic growth. But when national resources are misused, citizens become a burden rather than assets to the country.

Japan has an ultra low fertility rate, giving those incentives would it actually help? Citizens have levelled up to the no-marriage lifestyle, it'll take decades to rewire how people in those countries think of making children. The cost of living in Japan is high and they assume it'll be hard to raise kids in an expensive nation.

It is not having "less kids" that is the problem, the population going down in numbers is actually fine, do not believe the wealthy who wants you to have more, do not believe the media who is owned by it, and do not believe the brain washed normal people who think this is a problem. Earth does have enough resources for 8 billion people, even more. But money does not, we do not have enough jobs and money to go around for 8 billion people.

So rich wants you to actually work for them for cheap, by having plenty of people fighting over the same jobs. The problem however is having too many old people, we are going down in population which is fine, but we have more old people that needs to be taken care of, than the young people who can take care of them, financially I mean.

People tend to look towards the youth population of an economy as a yardstick to judge the future of that economy.

A high youth population alone is a advantage for a country. In my estimation, it doesn't matter if they have skills or not. Skills can be learned. What the responsibility of the government of that country will be is to create employment for the youthful population. When there are no employment opportunities, they become tools for bad actors to use in criminal activities which destabilizies the economy. This is the disadvantage of a high youth population for a country without employment opportunities.

When the level of the youth population is greater it can be a good support as an indicator of progress but it depends on the conditions and circumstances of the country.

When their resources are not supportive in the end this will actually be a time bomb especially for some countries that are still on the border of underdeveloped countries or developing countries.
For large countries that are quite advanced in terms of technology and economic conditions such as China, maybe this will be a potential but for some countries that can be said to be poor countries where corruption is still rampant and resources are still minimal to facilitate youth then in the end this will be very difficult and can even be a problem, especially for employment.

So that the indicator for progress is not only seen from the condition of the vulnerable age but this is also related to the condition of the country that is lived in the end.

Why is your second paragraph looking at your first as a joke? Don't be the deceived person, birth rate is very important to help the world grow, whether or not we added an additional 1 billion population to the existing number it won't affect the earth's source in production and raw materials needed to keep on building a better world in this planet. DO you think it's less crucial for a nation to complain about the drop in fertility rate, it's a huge natural disaster right now. Imagine how well the previous generations who gave birth to the multitudes of people who make up for the old folks right now, weren't they able to take good care of them. The deception here is the idea that the world economy would be great if birth rate dropped. But, it's a huge lie, don't accept that, even the rich who thought so, are in regret right now.
