Tax hike - not enough young to keep the workforce

Mmmmm its a case they want to increase the birth rate here or increase immigration, as theres not enough young workers to keep our aging population by 2050.

I got five kids already so I think I have done my bit. Maybe I should get a tax rebate or something for doing my bit to help the Country.

We're screwed either way.

More children would be done by taxing contraceptives - leading to widespread disease.

Greater imigration would be contested by your friendly neighbourhood racists.

What suprises me is that this is new news to some adult members of these boards however ask a student aged 13-14 and they'll already know about this.
