China has huge ambitions for the 21st century. But it’s demographic problems will be a significant challenge on the way there.
This includes a paid sponsored promotion which had no part in the writing, editing, or production of the rest of the video.
Music by Epidemic Sound: epidemicsound.com
Demographic explanations are inspired in part by several chapters of “The Accidental Superpower” by Peter Zeihan. It’s a great book and although this video is only a small slice (and not the main argument), it’s very interesting and worth reading. He’s the source of a couple specific phrasings like “countries can’t manufacture 18 year olds” which I think help explain the issue well.

Yea..you sound insane and in need of a re-education camp. This World needs more people, like a butt needs a hemorrhoid!
ty
nowadays more and more people refuse to get married or have child，because it's too expensive to live
I don't really understand what the problem is. China needs more children and are willing to write checks for them? Fine. Then write checks to hire state-workers to care for children, grow children in a lab, and hand them off to be raised by the paid state workers, where they will be raised in a specific way to be productive earners, exactly in the mold that China would want. They are the one country that would *A)* have few moral objections to a project like this *B)* have the sweeping political power to implement this on a whim.
@@potcha Well this idea isn't new. You've just described the plot of the novel 'Brave new World'.
@@Trabi_aus_der_DDR I don't know if its as dystopian as all that. Closer to Enders Game than brave new world.
@Justin Zhao That's true everywhere. Women are waiting for men to make a move. Men are too timid.
@Justin Zhao Thank you for your response--very interesting. 'Nerd culture'. That's an excellent phrase. Unfortunately, 'nerd culture' is a worldwide trend. Too many men are stuck behind their computer all day. They have forgotten that women LIKE to be approached.

Shut up 😂😂😂
Thinking mentality of almost everyone in China:
I can only have one child and I want it to be a boy. In the future I want him to be married to a beautiful girl.
Sure there would be those who favor boys but EVERYONE? No way.
@@scarlettli8885 "almost everyone"
I consider chinese preference of new-born boys as a remaining of agricultral society. Had to admit that we have just stepped out from an agricultural society for a few decades. families used to need to have enough men to fight (yes, physically) against other families and villages. and many people have not step out of that sterotype. people used RPGs and rifles to fight against other villages even in 1980s. and 20 years before that, during the cultural revolution, people robbed local army and they fought with tanks and warships. every man received military training because we believed Soviet Union were about to invade us. so guess how hard it would be to make one change mind of preferring male if he or she was brought up in such a crazy society. that is also the reason why our people are so willing to give up our right of owning guns.
And now it is reversed.young couples prefer a girl baby.because it costs too much to support a boy.
@@user-lv9om9iq1t How? And why? Aren't humans the same?
Yes I’d love to have 1.6 children
I’m a standard American I have
1.6 children, and 2.5 cats
And I’m 50% married
Not funny you idiot it means 8 children for 5 family
Haha lol! Just saying though some parents will have 1 child which puts the TFR at 1.00 while other parents have 2 children which increases the TFR and because there are so many families it can be mixed depends on how many parents have 1 or more children
lol
pahahha
there's no point of having children if u can't afford it
Here where I live no one will ever afford a child. If you have support from family or friends then I would at least have one child so you can experience having a bundle of joy and love and a gift from god . Money gets in the way of everything uggh
Binh ane I get what you're saying but life is too short to not get to experience a child until you can afford one .
I agree. It just makes the child grow up wanting for more and more. You can't even give them top education from a good school and they'll grow up hating themselves while their other friends get higher education in top universities
@@makenna6091 ur a dumbass
@@makenna6091 But think about the child's life. Why would you bring it into this world without the support it needs?

American Children are intentionally targeted for sterilization by e-cigs / vapes / juuls - as the heavy nicotine addiction kills off testicles and sperm and damages ovaries and cervix tissues. If they survive that, they can dodge the deadly toxins and abortion cancer DNA loaded into vaccine shots: vaccines containing Abortion DNA and 560 cancers .
More information on how American Children are being poisoned by toxic DNA injections and genocided to death on
vaccine . news website, article : medical horror genetic sequencing vaccines mrc 5 cancer genes modified
To Survive on Earth: first children must have parents clean from drugs and toxins and tobacco, then they must not be born in a hospital, where they will immediately be injected with vaccines, then grow up far away from Economic Genocide plans. Homes prices are over $300,000 while income has remained flat - homeless children are everywhere because the system wants everyone dead. People feeling these pressures but not understanding how they are failing and how they are being intentionally killed off - they despair and commit suicide in record breaking levels.
They are killing us off with economics, e-cigs, vapes, vaccines, and sterility.
I wonder if this is what will eventually kill us, we will become so technologically advanced we will stop having kids...

@@AS-do6pr Many european countries are currently struggling with a shrinking population problem and a low fertility rate, especially in countries like Germany, Bulgaria, Ukraine, the Baltics, the Balkans, Russia and Hungary.
This problem is easily fixed if you go to a capitalization system of retirement, and stop inflation, because both the repartition system of retirement and inflation are just big Ponzi's schemes.
the problem in europe are young people are taxed to death so europeans decided to just not get married and not have kids ..too expensive...so the government instead of lowering taxes , they brought in foreigners and gave them tons of welfare in the hopes they will contribute to society...ha this is not going to end well

I was adopted from China when I was a few months old. My parents told me I was left on the doorstep of a factory. One can only assume it was because of the one child policy or because I was a girl. The boys carry on the family name. Jokes on them, you still need women to have children!
@Srbistanik 01 they would have no choice. If they won't kill their babies the govt would have killed them.☹☹☹
Moiz Ahmed no honey. Parents would have to pay the fine and they’ll be ok.
@@user-qu1ic1mw2u yes i know. I have not said that in literal meaning. I just meant the same thing you said. The rich people had no problem in paying child tax but what about the poor worker. Nobody wants to kill their beloved child but unfortunately bc of the pressure of govt they had to do this.☹☹😭
Its not that simple. Many Chinese families at that time were rural farmers, and they needed more hands to work in the fields as a matter of pragmatism. Chinese culture (and many other cultures all over the world) have the sons carry on the family name, whether its in the West or in the Middle East.
Yeah, _both_ genders are _equally_ important.
However, maybe you were a *second* child?
Either way, I fell bad for you, but I hope your adoptive parents are caring!
Anyways, God Bless!

Gross. The earth doesn't need more humans.
But in America, money is the reason why people don't want/can't have children.
Babies cost too much money.
Also wanting their own free time, not wanting to pass on bad genetics and overpopulation issues.....the list goes on!
@IKSDE XD well people do get money from government during income tax for having kids if they dont make much money anyways. Also there's girls who go to school sometimes free or with scholarships offered just because they reproduced early 🙄
Its also a bad thing since in my case a 3.8 gpa still doesnt get me any money for college while a girl who has worse grades than me and decided to have a kid, gets offered money. My mom says "my daughters are very smart, have to work while taking classes while these other girls get pregnant and yet they get money to attend college but mine dont?"

@@ND001X the U.S.
When people apply for financial aid they can claim theyre independent of their parents if they have a kid, and they get money for college
Geez guys u really hate babys, they're not that bad😕
Children have always been a liability. It's only now becoming more obvious cos the little utility they had as labour, no longer exists
@God nerfed me or... have a kid or two and a pet, and enjoy your life. Sure, kids cost a ton, they only respect you until: they are 11(girls) or 13(boys). Then break your heart with their poor decision making, then break your savings with poor education decisions. The plus side is immeasurable however, children are part of our life cycle, they complete us. I’m referring to biology and psychology, men and women, our bodies release hormones to steer our emotions to guide us as parents. It is difficult to explain, but people simply can’t understand it without having experienced it. I truly feel sad for people who can’t, or won’t have children. Pets are great, but they’re not kids...

Next step is to delay retirement age.
That means there are less jobs for young people.
Which means young people have less money.
And then they are even less likely to have children
Not only the problem wasn't solved, but you made young and old people more miserable
Make sense to some extent, but still, the problems are way too complicated.
LagiNaLangAko23 Sadly, not yet in China right now, basically, the financial burden is holding government back to do this. So for now, it's grandparents to take care of children if the parent both have works; or traditional way, one to earn money, one to mind homeworks, this also leads to the gap between different genders.
@@sebastiandreak1462 it's upto individual to decide also wage gap is myth how can women in general make the same amount as men when they chose different career.
hey that sounds like italy LUL
When you add mowadays most wages are slave wages & with increasing living costs those people on minimum wages will have to get another job just to sustain themselves. Which means again less jobs for young people. 😑
This then means more youth crime, violence & ultimately terrorism.
Some still wants to have one child, I read an article from TIME several weeks ago, a lady said that they still want to have one child-her only daughter. She also mentioned that she have witnessed many children after their parents death. May sibling fought the fortunes which is very ugly. Thus she prefer to have only one child-all their fortune is only leave to her daughter.
That promotion transition was so smooth
I feel really bad for those only children. There is a lot of pressure to take care of your aging parents alone.
rannierunsfast especially consider the culture. US old parents don’t rely on their kids, while china has the culture and history to do so. Yes, the 80s, 90s and 00s are betrayed and exploited by chinese government.

Taking care of their aging parents is easier if they don't have too many of their own kids to take care of at the same time.
rannierunsfast my parents weren’t concerned about my future at all, that’s why I’m still dirt poor🙂
In the U.S., we don't take care of our elders. Problem solved. Ok, I'm being a bit sarcastic. But also, a large portion of those "only children" also have no children and will have no one to take care of them. The death age of Chinese will drop. But then the generation after each of those, they will plan to take care of themselves just as Americans now know they must.
Meanwhile India **sips tea** 😂
India had a similar issue though government telling people to have fewer kids only 2 and people have aborted the shit out of female fetuses. India got lucky that it didn’t go as far as china.
Having more than 2 children is already being discouraged. After 2005, such people are not going to get a government job. India is still developing though and we have the second most numerous Muslim population so it'd take time for it to come down but it will one day either due to excess competition, depression, famine or just total economic slowdown.

Omg this is highly educational..... will save it so I can watch it later too
Thank you for the info
Chinese here ... watched your other video on the housing crisis and it’s pretty accurate.
I would say expensive housing, overpriced education (private kindergarten is $25k per year.. because of the HUKOU thing a lot of parents have to send their children to private school in bigger cities), people do work long hours without overtime pay (the infamous 996 shift: 12 hours shift from 9 am to 9 pm and 6 days a week). And actually a lot of women suffer from infertility now :( that’s sad. But all those reasons are pretty much why.
it is a natual thing after life level rise. japan/korea also have fertility rate problem now. It's a problem, but less worse than situation like india, without any control. people just live under poverty continuously.
women suffer from infertility at higher rates now because they choose to have babies in their 30s and 40's where the chance of a miscarriage are much higher.
@@keeganmoonshine7183 yes, that's one of reason too. more education/richer societies -> less intention to have kids, this exists in lots of developed countries. african, indian....have higher birth rate. China has similar case, intention of have babies (2+) fades steadily.

It was that terrible law that caused that to happen to you. I’m sure you birthmother thinks about you every day and longs to know how you are doing even more then you wonder about her.

There is still a lot of immigration to this country, making up for women in the workforce and deciding to have one, two, or no kids. America actually really has our population covered and we really did dodge a huge bullet with our population purely by chance. I'm not saying we planned it or anything, it was pure sheer luck this time. However, Japan, all of Europe and China are gonna crash hard on their populations. Maybe America can become a beacon of hope for humanity still, just maybe. Ps, screw all the goddamn people that I'm talking about whites only! We have a very diverse population with many people from all over the world still coming here, so something has got to still be a little bright. I don't want anyone on this Earth to suffer these huge changes, and if I had the power to fix the ills on this planet, I would absolutely spread the wealth to keep humanity going. I guess I'm one of the few last optimists that still believe everyone can work together and hopefully work our species to the stars. It sounds corny, but I can still dream of a hopeful future, the thought police can f**k themselves on this one.
61gisele most of them also voted for brexit. Funnily enough, they also want to retire to Spain after Brexit leaving the next generation to endure the consequences.
@@mmyehokayyy2 The consequences of not being bullied by the EU. I think I'll take the chances without the EU ruling that have faces we are not allowed to see. They have secret voting schemes and have secret malls and stores they go to the public is never allowed to touch.
Exactly! I work with a few women who are currently "retired" yet they had to come back to work to pay for food and stuff.
"Children have become more of a liability - the kind that screams, cries and generates student loan debt"

how seamless was that ad at the end? wow!! great video tho!
“Before there were tractors, there were children. And the people stopped dying.” Dark humor 😂
Oh WoW.
I don't get it
Lol
Child labor
Gotta get your children married as soon as possible so then they can pump out more children to work on your farm
Is that dark humor or just a reality we’re ignoring?

Sakura Ayumi Their is no proof of that and as scientists slowly studies the universe they are starting to realize how god more enlikely dose exist. We have something to look forward to after life. What do you have burning in a eternal fire?
This is the type of content I've wanted to watch on youtube but didn't know existed. Really love the critical thinking and interesting topics. Instant sub!
First, make retirement optional.
Senior citizens should not be forced to stop working if they are productive.
Second, Modify the education system so that students can graduate earlier at 16.
General education should be compressed to 10 years by removing useless subjects.
Third, cultivate entrepreneurship in General Education.
That transition to the ad was so smooth I thought he was still explaining the actual video information. I’m impressed, take notes.😂
Your videos' consistency and frequency is one of the best, you deserve more subscribers
Yeah. Very true.
I love it how he seamlessly blends in advertisements for his sponsor to his video. I thought I was still watching the video about China's population crisis when all of sudden I was watching security alerts about passwords. LOL
Chinese girl: *Is born*
Parents: *So you have chosen, death*
That’s dark
The actual problem in China isn't the population, it's the lack of memes
SamiDaOne they’re horrible at creative thinking (literally)
Garette hurtful but truthful
Garette sounds very racist.
Oh they have memes, inside the firewall.
They have indeed a lot of memes. Check out the news site sixthtone.com which reports about the latest memes from time to time.
China:has one child policy
Also China: wonders why all their new cities are basically empty
@Jake from state farm technically it's the sexist parent's fault, not china's.but the one-child policy may have helped.
still not empty at all, people are everywhere
@Jake from state farm That's why i never will agree for 1 child policy bcoz i know government can change people behaviours but not theirs way of thinking. child policy must be flexible to some extent in oder to work smoothly and now mens are way more than women in china.
@Jake from state farm 移民解决问题。
@Jake from state farm my Chinese grandparents were kinda poor, they worked in the fields because yk, China was and still today is a developing country and they really needed manual labor to work the fields so they decided to have 3 sons, even tho women are useful in other ways, they can't do intense physical labor due to biologica differences and they couldn't afford to raise daughters
So its not a matter of misogynism imo
Obviously i do realize that times have changed and physical labor is less needed now
Thank you for the video.
I just realized that the one child policy is the reason my oldest sibling is 7 years older then my second oldest sibling
When citizens of a country see children as a liability, that country is likely only a generation or two from financial ruin.
Look at the US now.....
Michael Vol ?
@@Aagggyy The United States views children as liabilities, look all the abortions. Now we've crossed into realm of starting to allow post term abortions.
@Ayan Kumar Does India still have abortions of female babies?
@Ayan Kumar I'm not English, and neither is my ancestry.
One child policy was more accurately "One boy policy".
Unpopular opinion that’s more about traditions and old school mindset than about policy, but yea it is pretty bad.
But as the video says, groups of people are predictable and the goverment should have seen it would lead to that.
0Clewi0 yea, the government does have laws in place like when having a pregnancy exam (late stage) the doctor is by law forbidden to inform the parents about the sex of the child. Also abandoning a child (such as girl infant) has really heavy punishment (up to death penalty) because it is man slaughter/murder against minors. Although it didn’t stop people from doing those practices because how uneducated most people were back in the days. It is however rare now days especially in the cities, where people are much more educated than before.
in some cases it's a lot worse... it's also "murder baby girls policy".
Erin Chen also they would have less reason as women have more work opportunities than in the past.
On the brighter side, the one child policy has actually made feminism more prevalent in China, as families give their all for their daughters and raise them as they would a son in the past, making it so that the women born in this period are more educated and successful in the business world than before. The women have higher standards and sense of self-worth and aren’t afraid to go for what they want now, something some other countries can’t claim to.
this is literally a whole unit of ap human geography in a video
doesn't matter. we're all gonna be youtubers 😂😂 nobody's gonna contribute to anything
Nah, in order to compete with each other for original content, we'll all have to start making videos about having actual jobs, until every possible job has it's own channel, which would bring things back to a working equilibrium.
@Daniel Yehoshua you know actors were historically prostitutes?
@Daniel Yehoshua to be fair, Theodora was a prostitute and actor, and they at many points held influence to degrees
Just I wouldn't uphold actors as virtuous or forward thinking

That sponsor ad thingy was smooth like butter
Love the smooth transition to the "1 Password Policy" ad. :D
I didn't even noticed that because, I was reading comments. And, after few seconds when I looked up, I was like wtf is this Dashlane 😂
China: *One Child Policy*
Corona: *Say no more*
oh no
Lol
Oh god almost every death in China is someone's only child

What the hell are you talking about? Are you dumb? Corona kills mostly old people, which are the biggest problem here and were NOT the only child policy yet since it started in the 80s.
If you don't know something, why do you still have to talk?
I need this for my economic class
like the way you portray this aftermath. hope that you could one day take the current pandemic into the analysis. also like the way you advertise your sponsor, thinking that I might give it a try other than using iOS~
China: we have population crisis

Best comment ever
Thanos: So let me NOT fix that.

Next Video :- Why China ended its 2 Child Policy?
Lol
the most sophisticated ad I've ever run into
Not going to lie. This is really interesting.
Dirty...
Learning about this in school and I agree
Learnt about this 3 years ago
Why would you lie?
The video hardly talked at all about the One Child Policy, maybe about 1-2 minutes out of the whole 11 minutes video.
Lol nice transition from 1 child to promoting not having 1 password...
