No poultry for old men

<p>People age, some of us, don&rsquo;t do it gracefully. Some of us do a shitty job at aging. Some of us, hope not me of us, won&rsquo;t get to really age at all. But, due to healthcare and health conscience, most people will get to age and, as time passes, older people will fill the worksites, because they will be healthier at an old age and because there will be no system to sustain them&hellip; because, as you may or may not be aware of: more people are not getting born. I used to listen to older people, when I was young, say, economy will grow, it will grow nonetheless because children keep getting born, and we are more and more everyday. They used to not worry about future business, sales, jobs, &ldquo;economy will provide&rdquo;, they used to say, even when an economic crisis hit, &ldquo;economy will rebound and it will do so stronger&rdquo;, I used to hear. I was talking to some friend doctors recently about childbirth rate. 1.74 in M&eacute;xico (per woman), down from 3.4 some years ago. Half a person in Japan, a third of a person in Italy.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@josecarlosceballos/no-poultry-for-old-men-a55a7b97d433"><strong>Learn More</strong></a></p>
