Before we start, check out my latest over at Glibertarians.  This wraps up my current series; next week, a new and slightly more optimistic series begins.

Now then, watch this; it is a tad over an hour long, but worth every minute.

Talk about not terribly optimistic.

I can’t add anything, really, to the points Nicholas Eberstadt makes in this interview.  I have, in past posts, discussed the ongoing decline in population growth in the developed world, which will soon lead to a population decline, but in this interview we see a great discussion of many, many more likely results of this decline, and how to address the failure of modern nations to reproduce.

It’s worth watching.  Find some time in your schedule to watch the whole thing through.
