Did you hear about China’s new population problem? it’s not having too much – it’s having too little: Lack of population growth is starting to weigh on their economy and it’s poses the same kind of sustainability problems we’re in right now. They’ve got a lot of aging people and the next generation work force to support them has been shrinking dramatically. (Double click on picture to see full size)
China’s government imposed birth control system worked too well and now it’s coming back to bite them. This is the “4-2-1 Problem.” Two sets of grandparents, two parents and one child…with one income to take care of them in retirement. The one child policy had another unexpected twist, the little emperor complex. We call it the entitlement attitude here and the effect in the US and China is the same. We’re both running out of money for all the safety nets.
If we keep quite maybe they will murder/abort themselves into extinction.
The elimination of baby girls has meant that males in China have no prospects for marriage. They are looking to other nations for brides to help them with the burden of caring for elders and working too! The control freaks always think they are the smart ones and it always comes back to bite them on the butt!

A lot of Chinese girls are showing up in America too, looking for better prospects for a husband and of course better everything else.
