"birth rate decline is bad, who's going to take care of all the old people in the future" who the fuck is taking care of the elderly right now????
too many nursing homes right here right now in the present are understaffed and neglecting their residents. is this because we lack the working people available to do that kind of work? or is it because nursing homes don't pay well and don't staff enough and so people choose better paying jobs that don't do shit to help the world we live in.
we live in a society where people waste their labor working for medical insurance companies, working in advertising, working on gen AI. there are so many dumbshit industries that don't need to exist and require a lot of labor that could be better allocated.
We live in a capitalist society where the elderly will be neglected regardless of the birth rate. Shut the fuck up about how the elderly will be impacted as if you fucking care about the elderly people alive right now.
