A shocking realization,
an undeniable truth,
some countries facing,
population collapse,
and with it comes,
difficult choices to be made!
Clash of generations,
dragging into the fray,
nation that wants to survive,
develop and make progress,
yet, getting much harder,
for balance to be maintained.
For, it's really a challenge,
to address underlying problem,
when managing aging population,
with fewer children being born,
while resisting immigration,
needed to solve shrinking workforce.
It's natural to fear changes,
encountering incompatible cultures,
which invade their treasured spaces,
gradually diluting traditional values,
bearing the brunt of the outcomes,
through encroachments & homogenization.
So, symptoms seen in sporadic incidences,
as leaders follows prevailing sentiments,
rise of conservatism in local residents,
alienation of skilled labor & migrants,
putting pressure on various services,
further damages future prospects.
Many have shifted to automation,
increasing retirement age of population,
encouraging young to become parent,
through incentives & reducing barrier,
while allowing the ones who integrated,
sincerely promoting grand vision...
Of national identity.
