priznat posted:World wide the population growth is decreasing too, with the world population expected to start trending down in ~2095 (UN estimate). Developing nations birth rates are plateauing at a surprising rate. It seems far off but in the whole civilization scale it’s really quick. Sure, but that's where immigration stems the demographic hemorrhaging. You take their young people by giving them better deals. It's also why aging populations like Japan will be better off than China since people actually want to move to Japan. But that leaves developing countries without their youngest and brightest and creates nation-sized West Virginian towns after the coal mines closed.

Foo Diddley posted:i guess elon doesn't have any fiduciary duty to the people he borrowed all that twitter money from Not in a general sense, that’s why lenders usually put explicit covenants on loans. But musk has a good chance to renegotiate this debt anyway, at this point banks would probably take promises for half or a quarter of the interest over the worthless equity.

Megillah Gorilla posted:gently caress it, someone should totally do a white history month and it's just colonialism, slavery and racism throughout history and why people should be loving ashamed of it. Yeah, I'm currently reading Michael Harriot's Black AF History which lays out all the reprehensible poo poo white people have done to PoC in America (but especially African-Americans) since literally day 1. It's absolutely horrific reading, and should be shouted from the roof tops. Great book, everything is really well sourced and cited and the author has a great sense of humour, but jesus loving christ, African-Americans as a group should be given sainthood for not burning the whole loving country to the ground about 50 times by now.

Creditors have collateral anyway and are protected in that sense (or some secured interest) Or they should have. I doubt any of these banks were stupid about to loan elon billions without protecting their interest hahah

Elon is somewhat protected in that billions are not a lot of money to banks, they want to be involved in his other businesses, and the Saudis did not invest for Twitter it to succeed

It's glaringly obvious that deteriorating quality-of-life is a big driver of falling birth-rates. If hyper-capitalists like Musk were ever truly interested in population crises they'd be spending their wealth trying to reshape the quality of our lives, but they aren't doing that because their agenda isn't to actually help anything besides creating more slaves to the capitalist number-must-always-go-up god. We saw the largest boom in population at a time where western lives were catapulted into a level of quality never dreamed of before. There's a reason I'm almost 40 and still don't own property or have any kids, and it isn't because I don't want them.
