Central Banks Have Killed Demographics

The market panicked today because wages and jobs came in too hot.

You heard that correctly: The market is dropping because people are getting raises and jobs.

And this in a climate with overwhelming national debt which can only be paid by taxes from working or demographic growth perhaps from reproduction or innovation.

Only large corporations and governments want inflation to be controlled by suppressing wages. The mechanism is when inflation rises, attack workers by raising interest rates.

This is in alignment with the Federal Reserve objective of full employment.

If wages rise and people can buy things, employers have to give raises and they don’t want to do that. Especially world governments which operate as a massive make work program for millions.

When and how was it determined that suppressing wages was the best way to control inflation. Reducing government spending is obviously another way.

Sounds quite like a scam to me, to be honest. Wages have been suppressed under this policy for decades and the band aid fix to the resulting collapse in demographics has been massive immigration to “control inflation” by keeping wages down.

None of this makes sense to me and seems incredibly … rigged in favor of large corporations and governments.

The policy of low unemployment may need to be thrown out globally.

Wherever you have central banks you have demographic collapse. Europe, Japan, Korea. They seem to be killing the earth.

When your target is high employment, it means that parents all have to work and have no time to meet or build families.

Years ago it was possible for part of the population to get paid comparatively more and afford families.

If I had to pick a single reason behind demographic collapse it is central bank policies of full employment and wage suppression.

Immigration is a short term fix. But the real problem does seem to be central banks.

Full employment means no demographic growth.
