You don't get to less without decreasing, lol.

Yes, which is exactly the problem.

Less economic growth and a temporary issue with too many old people. That's not a bad trade off for a better future for all.

Okay good luck convincing anyone else of that with how things are looking in South Korea.

I don't have to convince anyone, it is happening regardless. Yes, people will bitch and moan, but temporary hardships for the elderly who allowed this to happen is a small price to pay.
