  1. Not to worry. Robots, humanoid or otherwise, will substitute for people. Isn’t Musk telling us there’s no need to save for retirement, the AI-enhanced future is so bountiful?

  2. H-Man, based on our birth rate in the US, if we don’t have immigration we lose and become a Japan. A bunch of old people living off of interest rate obligations sucking up resources and contributing nothing. There will be a day, not to far into the future, that cutting your lawn will cost what you pay for healthcare (which is another topic for another day). Anyone for a white coquina yard?

    1. We are older and getting more so as ICE keeps immigrants away. They are younger too and pay taxes for years. The U.S. owes moe to outsiders than any other country in the world. So there is no clipping coupone. We just pay the world not like Jaan or Norwayes – just the oppisite.

  3. A useful estimate of GDP growth is workforce growth + productivity growth. If workforce growth is zeroed out, GDP growth will be entirely dependent on productivity growth…not a great place to be.

  4. $10,000 tax credit, plus free healthcare for the child for 10 years, plus free food for the child, for 10 years, plus free rent for the child, for 10 years, for anyone who has a baby.

    That’s what it’s coming to. The incentives have to be right. Americans are capable of making babies, in vast numbers, if the incentives are right.
