What's wrong with the population stabilizing in developed countries? Why do we need to import more people just because the current population won't breed? Politicians make policies that rely on unlimited geometric growth of the population then ruin everything when it doesn't work out that way. We are better than this.

I have no image for this point so I'll post this.

I agree with you but I'm not sure why you would care

the current dominant economic system capitalism is not built to handle a declining population because its based on the promise that a population will exponential grow and that there will be always a working generation that will increase economic growth for that country and a generation that will reap its rewards (social security)

You have an incorrect view of capitalism. Speculators will see that the population is stabilizing and plan out accordingly for the future. It is politicians funding social security relying on there being more people in the future to pay for it.

in fact, growth in post-industrial countries depends more on productivity per worker multipliers, not the raw number of workers. excess labor is becoming more of a liability than an asset as industry is increasingly automated and onshored. corporate profits are still growing exponentially and it's not because illegal immigrants buy more iphones, it's because it takes less labor to make an equivalent good.
put another way, post-industrial growth comes from technology like email and standardized shipping containers, not the size of the labor pool.

Because you chose right wing ideology over communism
