    Until quite suddenly we don’t. There’s going to be a massive population plunge in about 20 years with a large aging population and nobody to help fill the gap behind them. Granted, I think that’s where AI and robotics can probably help which is what Japan seems to be banking on.

      I am looking forward to the massive population plunge… as is the rest of the earth. Hopefully, with less humans we can have better social programs and more earth friendly usage of resources.

        You’re looking forward to unprecedented mass suffering for the human race resulting in a decimated population? 😬

      Only true in specific countries though right? Globally doesn’t seem like a plunge is likely.
