No One Left: Why the World Needs More Children By Paul Morland

The only one left paperback

Time and again reading this book I felt the author was pointing out truths I had never thought of before but which were proven by what I had empirically noticed There were far children around in the streets and parks when I was younger not just in my baby boomer childhood but in my 20s and 30s and now instead the typical passer by is my age or older We are no longer working but we are not expecting to drop dead any time soon thank you very much And our pensions are sacrosanct But those pensions are only there because of younger people coming into the workforce The retired population is approximately a third of the working population and is rising Pragmatically this is a hugely important reason not to oppose immigration though as Morland points out the problem of large numbers of old age dependents is almost universal throughout the world other countries need their young workers too Really high birth rates are confined to a shrinking number of central African states China s population has shrunk below that of India Japan and South Korea are heading for disaster A well argued calm and ultimately positive book I found it convincing in its own terms very readable and to use an overused phrase an eye opener You may not agree with all of Morland s assessment but I urge you to read his book 9781800754119

A population calamity is unfolding before our eyes It started in parts of the developed world and is spreading to the four corners of the globe There are just too few babies being born for humanity to replace itself Leading demographer Paul Morland argues that the consequences of this promise to be calamitous Labour shortages pensions crises ballooning what is currently happening in South Korea which faces population decline of than 85% within just two generations threatens to engulf us all and sooner than we think In the developed world we may be able temporarily to stave off the worst of its effects with immigration but many countries including those the immigrants come from will get old before they get rich No One Left charts this future explains its causes and suggests what might be done Unless we radically change our attitudes towards parenthood and embrace a new progressive pro natalism argues Morland we face disaster No One Left Why the World Needs More Children No One Left: Why the World Needs More Children
