Why China Poses No Threat to the U.S.

To the birthers go the spoils. I read a fascinating interview with generational theorist Neil Howe last week about Earth's population hitting 7 billion people, and about how current demographic fundamentals suggest we may never get to 8 billion. Much of the world's seeming current population growth is due to a reduction in overall deaths as baby boomers age healthfully, not any real increase in births. Nowhere is this more apparent than in China.
