People are always born with the same age namely 0, but they do not all die at the same age. In fact getting older increases chances of death. Hence 2 babies per mother ends up in a pyramid too.
Even if you presume people all die at the same age, things will be stable. If say people all get childten at 30 and only work between 30-60 and then all die at 90. If we then assume 1 child per couple and everybody has a child at 30, we would get a stable dependency ratio of 2.5 dependents per worker. Obviously those numbers are not realistic. Btw that also is not a pyramid, but a trapezoid.
It is not an inverse pyramid though. The older humans are the more likely they die. So you always and up with a pyramide at the top, at least somewhat. With low birth rates a society has to care for fewer children. That results in an actually fairly stable ratio of working age population to dependents.
A shrinking population also means build infrastructure is already built. They just have to keep things running.
Every $1 invested in resilient infrastructure yields a $4 return in avoided recovery costs, according to case studies published by the World Bank and the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure. FEMA estimates those cost savings can be even higher in the U. S. – and suggests federally funded climate mitigation grants “can save the nation $6 in future disaster costs for every $1 spent on hazard mitigation.”
China uses debt differently. Local governments are not allowed to borrow money directly, so they use companies to borrow money for public works. The system is called local government financing vehicle(lgfv). They usually get land, which they sell or lease to get some money or to secure loans. It is usually understood that local governments would bail lgfv out. The issue with lgfv is that they owe more money then the GDP of China and it is secured with mostly real estate, which is somewhat on the edge of crashing. Chinese real estate is crazy overvalued, so popping that bubble can hurt China badly.
The difference is that China is in a trade war with the US. The US is in a trade war with the rest of the world.
One of the biggest German Nazi YouTubers lives on Mallorca. Another one lives in Panama and it is too funny to have the disconnect between him complaining about migration, while making praising Panama in the same sentence.
Russia was not healthy when it applied shock therapy. The Soviet Union was collapsing, massive political instability in Moscow, all sorts of countries moving out of the Russian sphere of influence, the first Chechen war started and so forth. It was fairly obvious that big decision had to be made, but unfortunatly Russia choose poorly.
Homeless are just lazy. They really should learn to do proper business tricks. When Elon needed lithium he couped Bolivia. So when homeless need housing...
Germany has public broadcasters, which are controlled by councils made up of representatives of different groups like chourches, unions, enviormental groups and well Jews. That was part of trying to make sure that the Holocaust does not happen again. However the Jewish community in Germany is rather small, due to the Holocaust at about 100k. That group is also unlike American Jews extremly pro Israel. That is why anti zionist Jews are such a problem within Germany. So the Israel lobby works hard to get rid of them.
Just to expand on this. Grand Paris, which is Petite Couronne and some other municipalities bordering it, is about as large in areas as Berlin, but with nearly twice the population for example. So we are not talking about some rural or suburban part of the France.
Also it is a general French problem of not adjusting city boundaries for ages. Large French cities rarely have a border with a municipality, which is actually rural.
The next state election in Brandenburg is in 2029, so they are fully in the we do not care period. It is also an EV plant very close to Berlin, so the perfect plant to buy up for some Chinese EV company trying to influence German politics.... Not that the Chinese are well known for labour laws, but still.
MIT license is still open source, so Ubuntu based operating systems can still be open source. The problem is that this makes it less needed that they have to be. However most current projects will probably stay proper open source projects and likely continue to use a better license.
Holy Roman Empire is the first Reich. That however was a medieval Empire, which was holy, so the pope can fuck off, Roman as in someties doing some Rome Larps and actually an Empire.
