Although I am sure that many of you could draw the attached population
pyramids of, Asia, Latin America, and Europe http://tinyurl.com/omng from your
imagination, what is interesting is that Latin America will have a young and
vibrant work force for decades to come while Asia falls somewhere in the Middle
but dwarfs the rest of the world in population growth.
In the long run, 50 years, we will have a world wide problem of old folks.
We also will be consuming higher levels of resources. Thus, I tend to view the
dramatic lowering of birth rates as a plus rather than a negative factor. To see
dramatic drops in birth rates, check out Turkey and South Korea.
