The issue is not so much the decreasing population but that fact that its aging too fast and the proportion of productive working age people will continue to shrink.

Unless we get robots to replace nurses etc. in retirement homes no we can't...

I don't understand the downvotes on this one - it's not so much the size of the population as it is the lopsided nature of it.

Too many kids - big problems.

Too many folks in retirement homes - bigger problems.
