Size matters in geopolitics, so the West is excited China’s population growth is ending. But here’s how Beijing will solve it- RT op-ed

America, China, over-population

This is an interesting article, but it failed to observe a subtle shift that is growing in trend: Americans are switching from consumer to production economy. More Americans want to make things because there is a shortage of supply due to the trade war with China. Also, more Americans are considering working abroad or renouncing their citizenship because they don’t like the jobs in the job market and because they don’t feel safe with all the crime and because they want more bang for their income.

Floods of unproductive illegals that can barely read, write, or speak acceptably, will not solve the problem since selling goods like tamales, beef patties, and flowers (and wiring that income to their home country) will certainly not be enough to make America a powerful economy. Quality will be more important than quantity as we move forward in a more competitive globalized world.

Population may matter but America’s long-term economic growth is anything but secure.
