Why is a decreasing birthrate a bad thing? Do we really need populations this large?

It’s not decreasing where it should.

/thread

We definitely don't need populations this large.

a billion humans on the the planet would be plenty.

large populated civilization wins eventually
look china

incorrect!

They're only winning because they're allowed to out-compete local manufacturers in the countries they export their slave labor chinkshit to. Increased tariffs would help a lot.

And no, decreasing birth rates in itself isn't a problem. As usual, immigration of people who don't belong is the real issue.

It's a mathematics thing and a population age thing. There's a thing called replenishment rate, that's kind of dangerous to lower too much. Just like it's happening in Japan, when you have a decreasing birthrate, there's too young people in comparison to old people, and eventually you will go through a really bad demographics problem wherein a shrinking portion of your population is of working age,and capable of productivity, and another, larger growing percentage is older and requires attention for long term, care, and without a large number of people to support them, this demographics becomes problematic.This problem eventually resolves itself out as population numbers simply lower and begin to even out as appropiate, but it still will be quite a problem.

Additionally, with less productive workers, you have a smaller GDP, ect.

It's got it's plusses and minuses.
Population control is interesting as a concept, but you end up with execution based issues- in China, there's more men than women now, and in nature, generally, it's the reverse- more women than men. I dont have to tell you why it's better for more women to be available than men.

Sustinate your claims

Your picture is ironic if you know the answer yourself and you're trolling, op.

The reason why declining birthrates are a bad thing is because of socialism. The family is less and less involved in the average person's life. It used to be left to the family to care for their sick, their elderly, and help out their poor. The government does that now, and the government doesn't run on love and empathy; it run on tax dollars -- it runs on your time. You have been volunteered to take on this burden that you never asked for. They say it's fair because you drive on their roads, but I think it is nuts.

It is necessary to keep the scheme called pensions afloat.

No we wouldve been fine with no immigration but you faggots want open borders as well

Yea and make a bigger problem out of it.
>Hnnnggggg im complaining about decreasing birthrates but
Im losing control over my population and now I dont know what to do hnnggggg

>Sustinate
Substantiate, friend.

Its becuase of socialism
>mfw doesn't realize hes living in a democracy mfw wtf

Because then wrong ones are increasing and the right ones decreasing.
Look at the current ratios

Too many old people and not enough young people to work and change the old people's diapers

You can have socialist aspects to an otherwise democratic society.

>Why is a decreasing birthrate a bad thing?
It's not so much that it's decreasing, it's that it isn't decreasing in the correct areas.

Alaska reporting in.

It’s a good thing. The US needs to return to a 1985 sized population (ie about 100 million people less than we currently have)

why cant we just:

>kill the old people
>kill the shitskins
>have fewer children

that way we won't have to continue a ponzi scheme where we endlessly grow the population every generation until society collapses!

The only system that works (capitalism) unfortunately requires growth. Exponential growth.

So yeah, we need more people. We need more people to make more money for our system to work.

Let old people die

Because it's decreasing the pool of humans with the capability of figuring out electricity and astrophysics while the pool of humans that didn't even figured out the wheel or the sail is increasing exponentially and even replacing the former.

Desert dweller with over 100 year relatives here, they just don't die it's not our fault.

half a billion is more than enought
but we need a global government to maintain that

>And no, decreasing birth rates in itself isn't a problem. As usual, immigration of people who don't belong is the real issue.

Japan has low birthrates and no immigration. They are about to slip into irrelevance in the next 50 years. A country of old people has no future, in terms of economy and power

It's a bad thing because social wellfare is a ponzi scheme that needs increasing number of people paying taxes.

Also, it's a bad thing comparatively: if China is outbreeding you, you're fucked. If China is also decreasing, then it's irrelevant

Not from the third world we don't.

>muh taxes

>muh welfare state

>muh unfunded liabilities

Literally

Because that’s “evil and heartless””

Even though that is what we should do

Japan is a tiny place for so many people to live, Tokyo has more people on it than the whole of Australia. Japan can not and should not sustain that many people. The problem of the aging population will naturally sort itself out as it must. The problem is mass importation of foreigners. For what purpose does a place like Japan need so many people? Endless economic growth? It's obscene

yeah I guess we should add this one to the list:

>kill all the morons who think it's "evil" not to overpopulate the earth with teeming swarms of billions of useless subhumans that destroy the environment and make quality of life miserable for everyone

When the fuck did the Japs stop being racist? They need to start again.

it isnt, as long as you euthanize people as soon as they stop working

CHinese birthrates are far below replacement.

White people need to populate

Decreasing WHITE birth rate is a disaster for everyone, the niggers and spics here included.

Only the White European birth rates are decreasing. Pakis, poos, niggers and mudslimes have their birth rates sky high. This just means that if whites stop breeding the planet will turn more and more non-white, and by extension dumber and dumber. Fuck you for being a retard and fuck anyone who agrees with you too.
