This is the message I most want to convey. The demographic ultra low fertility transition (in Japan, Korea, China, Italy, Spain, Taiwan, etc) will have incredible global economic consequences for decades. This will impact almost everyone.
How may the global economy continue growth against these headwinds? Here are some approaches elites may sadly use:1st, legalize almost everything,Prostitution,Drugs, Gambling & other vices.This will bring in enormous government revenue (at the cost of virtue but they don't care).
2nd: Opening up all remaining semi closed economies, by force if necessary. No major economy will be allowed to be partially cut off from global financial markets. Meaning Egypt,Burma,Iran,Ethiopia,Pakistan etc will have to be made to more or less fully open up to global capital.
3rd: Pushing retirement even further back (even though life expectancy is no longer rising everywhere). Expect partial retirement benefits at 68 and full at 75 to start becoming the norm in many countries.
