America's Population Problem
Manage episode 364959146 series 2422509
Americans currently aren’t having enough children to replenish the population. Fortunately, immigration should be able to make up some of the domestic shortfall. What is the cause of this? Is it economic in nature? Or is it societal? Essentially, why are Americans waiting longer to have children and having fewer of them? What are the financial implications of more or less children? Are there any long term consequences?
In this week’s Trading Perspectives, Sam and John discuss America’s birthrate woes. Will the pendulum ever swing back the other way? Or will our society’s focus on individualism lead to future population decline?
