elon musk: Tesla founder Elon Musk warns that China loses 40 percent of its population per generation due to current births in China
The Chinese are not interested
In China, the world’s most populous country, interest in having children has waned over the past decade due to strict family planning. The couple had 3 to 4 children and are currently considering having one child.
Thus the number of elderly people in China is increasing and the number of young people in the working class is gradually decreasing. China has relaxed its family planning policy as it will create major problems in the economy in the long run. The couple can have up to 3 children and the necessary grant assistance will be provided.
Very low
But the Chinese, tired of having a baby, are likely to face a major shift in the economy and population there in the future. One crore 60 lakh babies were born last year.
After the Communist Party came to power in China, the number of births per year in the country was very low. The Chinese government says people can freely marry and have children once corona restrictions are relaxed. Yet, people are not interested in having a baby.
You lose 40 percent
Tesla founder Elon Musk has taken to Twitter to lash out at the Chinese and share an article on the BBC website. Elon Musk tweeted, “Most people in China believe that a child policy is in place.
But despite allowing couples to have up to 3 children in China, the birth rate last year has been very low. China will lose 40 percent of its population in each generation due to the current birth rate, and the population is deteriorating. ”
Earlier in the day, Tesla founder Elon Musk said in an interview: This is total nonsense. Birth rates throughout the United States have dropped dramatically already, following in the footsteps of China. Birth rates throughout the United States have dropped dramatically already in the last 50 years. One of the problems facing the US over the next 20 years is population degradation. ” He said.
Raising is difficult
Huang Wenjeng, a senior analyst at the Center for Globalization in China, said: “Elon Musk’s concerns are growing. China’s population has been declining for the past 10 years. If the Chinese government does not change its attitude and mindset and realize that human beings are important for the development of the country, it will not be able to bring back the declining population. ”
