We don’t need more people, we need less.
Why? Many European countries struggle with not having enough people.
No Wtf
Lad, we’re not making enough kids. Society is not sustainable with an aging population and less people to work. We are absolutely dependent on immigration.
No. We need less people. In general, there is no shortage of workers, there is just inefficiency, bad working conditions and bad pay.
The fairytale of “worker shortage” was made up by employers that want to get away with paying nothing for work and treating their workers like shit.
If you want to shrink a population, you have to do it slowly while adapting the system to it. In a few years, with the boomer generation slowly retiring, Europe would be fucked without immigration. Too many retired people with not enough young people to care for them and uphold the economy at the same time. You can’t fix the resulting hole in manpower by only increasing efficiency. In Germany we are talking about a lack of 400k people per year.
what happened in turkey? how did they increase so heavily? didn’t large amounts of their population move to central europe in that same timeframe?
Turkey has brain drain. The educated people are moving away. Those are usually the ones with smaller families.
Now do one without immigration. Is there even an EU country that has bigger birth rates than it did in 1990?
Which is just another reason why the aversion to immigration on display by such large parts of EU society at the moment is just so freaking dumb and counterproductive.
Well, let’s wait until the Boomers go into retirement and the economy really crashes, due to the lack of manpower. Maybe some people will change their view on immigration then.
