The US population will start declining in the next 10-20 years. What should the US be doing to prepare for this?

Why do you insist on playing these games to defend normalizing this behavior?

Nothing. That's what I though.

You both play from the same brainless playbook. Makeup nonsense -> demand things in relation to the fabricated nonsense -> Make obfiscating argument about about the thing you made up -> ad infinitum.

Yes, yours. You say something stupid, we comment on it, you pretend you never said it and then try and change the subject.

Very consistent with you.

You know, if you actually say things that make sense or that you can get behind or explain to begin with you won't have to spend so much time pretending you never said it at all

LOL, you were the one getting all bent out of shape making crap up because Impartial brought up drag queens.

Impartial brings up Drag Queens, Impartial lies and obfuscates to go on to defend drag queen story hours, then you come along lying about me bringing this topic up and then you proceed to try to play stupid games making this about me... so you too can defend grown ass men getting their jollies and validation off of kids. 

So, do you take your kids to see draq queens too? Do you support this? Why are you so defensive about this?

You like to comment purely on your imagination of what you think is going on and you almost never have a logical argument, mostly due to laziness and lack of mental effort. While User is more competent but after he loses an argument (or like now fails to have one to begin with) he goes into a mode where he just picks a specific irrelevant thing to fixate on and treads water. Both of you think that if you hang in long enough with your lies and irrelevant trolling then you "win" and if anyone gets bored of your lack pointless dialogue then they are "running away." Its fairly pathetic to watch month after month.

You are a clown. 

This was your contribution to start this garbage:

"User's obvious transgender fetish notwithstanding"

If there is a troll here, it is certainly you.

Yeah, so? It's a joke, legitimately criticizing your behavior. Go ahead and be offended.

That's true, provided what I think is going on is actually the truth.

Sorry kid but everybody can see the truth here. I don't have to go back and change what I said or explain what I said or pretend I never said it in order to try and eak out a point now.

As I have said on this board about a trillion times, if you have to lie to make your point you probably didn't have a very good point. And you didn't have a very good point

Enough said. You just agreed that your comments here are purely in reponse to your own imagination. So nothing that anyone else says and means actually matters.

Well we both know I didn't but it's on par with your childishness that you would try and quote me out of context and pretend i did  

LOL how sad is that?

Most developed economies have been in demographic decline for years. Some like South Korea and Japan will dramatically shrink in the decades to come. China's population started to decline in the last couple years and they have begun to strategize policies to encourage more births. The US is expected to hit its tipping point as early as the 2030s, a date which has been moved up serveral decades by more recent changes to birth rates.  Birth rates in every continent except Africa have gotten close to 2 children per woman--even in most very poor and densely populated places like Bangladesh.

So does a future of declining population and an increased percentage of elderly people concern you?

The population getting more old will not be 1/100th of the problem associated with the population getting more brown.

The context was me saying that you respond purely to your own imagination. It's not complicated.

Why do you pretend to care when you fabricate the garbage you do in response to others?
