Kathleen Lucas+FollowWorld Population Crash Coming Way SoonerTurns out, the global birth-rate crisis is way worse than we thought. The UN keeps overestimating how many babies are being born, and the real numbers are dropping fast—especially in places like Colombia and Chile, where birth rates are now even lower than Japan’s. Forget 2084: experts say the world’s population could start shrinking by 2055. That means fewer workers, more old folks, and a whole lot of economic headaches. The future might be a lot lonelier (and poorer) than we expected. #PopulationCrisis #Demographics #BirthRate #Health #BodyHealth4152Share
Jared Hardy+FollowBaby Bonuses Won’t Fix the Birth RateLawmakers are tossing around ideas like $1,000 kid savings accounts and $5,000 baby bonuses to fight the falling U.S. birth rate—but let’s be real, that barely covers diapers! The real issue? Child care costs are sky-high, paid leave is rare, and affordable housing is a joke. If we want more babies, we need real support for parents, not just one-time handouts. Who else thinks we need bigger changes? #BirthRate #ParentingStruggles #ChildCareCrisis #FamilySupport #Health4429Share
