US Population On Track To Start SHRINKING By 2035 | Chris Hamilton, Econimica
This will have massive implications
This one’s important folks…
I just released the interview below with data analyst Chris Hamilton of Econimica and he showed me a few charts that just blew my mind.
First & foremost among them is one showing how US natural population growth (births less deaths) is on track to go negative — for the first time in history — by 2035.
That has massive implications: socially, politically and — for certain — economically.
Also, our cohort of the key value-creating demographic, adults 25-54, is ALREADY in decline.
Our population is rapidly becoming a lot older (and unproductive) on average.
