    Immigrants want to be there. They literally choose it. Not always without coercion, but they choose it.

    Immigrants are not mystically better at fucking. They’re just people coming in from elsewhere.

    Why tell people to fuck more? What’s the actual problem with a shrinking population? If automation gets better, and it has, you can just have more of your population go into medicine and nursing and science than making linegoup at the linegoup factory.

      Immigrants have a statistically higher fertility rate than the native population in every advanced economy. It’s not a judgement, just reality.

      The problem with a shrinking population is that it requires constantly higher taxes on younger generations, who will be under financial stress due to poor asset appreciation. Leading to political upheaval, and all it’s assorted fun pass times.

      For example, US social security won’t have full funding in 6 years. There are several simple fixes, that are all politically toxic. So it’s not going to happen, until extreme events make it happen, or remove the need through mortality rates.
