France
Is it easier to see something more clearly from the outside? As the French would say, Peut-être (perhaps). Many developed countries face the same issue. How to diversify their labor market or bring in talented/educated labor as well as those willing to do the jobs that many are not willing to. The richer your country is, the fewer babies who are born. One, because having a child becomes too expensive but also as women become more free with their own education, jobs and money…they chose to have fewer children. Old people also are living longer and the pension or social security systems that they rely on require labor to survive. Too many countries want to accomplish this diversification of the labor market without compromising any of their stubborn set ways or what they consider their “values.” Typically these values are nothing more that veiled supremacy of the ruling power/race. So far, all countries who refuse to bend, have failed. How have they failed? Let me count the ways.
