  1. If birds don't have a nest, they won't lay eggs. What if nests cost 30x what the birds can afford?

  2. Can you do a video on global birth rates? In places like East Asia, people just cannot afford to have children, and even if they could, they wouldn't have time to raise their children due to the nature of the East Asian work culture and their careers would be negatively impacted. Governments like Japan and Korea aren't committing to solving the root of the problem, but instead hope that cash incentives will raise births. I'm using East Asia as an example as that is where the causes of the problem are most extreme.

  3. India disappoints both pessimists and optimists. It will become a vibrant economic superpower, but it's growth may not be on the same scale as China in the 80s and so forth, due to the differing nature of the world and their individual economies.

  4. Don't know about you, but I genuinely don't have much faith in the Biden administration in Asia.

  5. India has been on the cusp of a boom for decades. A huge economic boom won't happen. India's growth will be steadier if the Indian government makes the right decision to plan long term growth, instead of an unsustainable growth model that the government can't handle.

  6. Nah, most of those "allies" are addicted to Chinese trade. And they aren't showing any signs of slowing. Disappointed with their attitude

  7. This is why china is prioritising high tech and artificial intelligence. They know that nukes and nationalism cannot make up for the lack of modernisation

  8.  @zhcultivator  Yep, watched that. It was good although I think it overcomplicates the issue slightly. The reason behind low birth rates is obvious. People can't afford to. Whether in terms of money or time.
    22
  9.  @pradyumna3107  If India wants to become a superpower, they should stop focusing on spurring a short term boom, and instead focus on longer term, steadier growth. Look at China, 40 years of impressive growth, and now an unsustainable model coming apart at the seams. India's government would not be able to stop that sort of situation compared to Xi's China at the current time. Go steady or else the glory will be short lived.

  12.  @pradyumna3107  I wouldn't be too sure. Unlike China's government, it's extremely clear that India's growth has been hampered by short term thinking to win the next election. Democracy has many great advantages, but when it comes to longer term planning, India really isn't the one to step out.

  13. There's no such thing as "deserve" Sad but true. That being said, China and India will definitely continue rising throughout the coming years.

  14.  @pranavingale6850  Exactly. You are perfectly correct. I doubt India will surpass China or the US to be honest, but it doesn't need to.
    14
  15. Most people think China will start to decline and all that but the fact is that they are moving towards, slower, stable and high tech economic growth. India will take roughly 20 to 30 years to catch up. That's not a bad thing.

His account (which was made mere hours ago) got banned and I could feel his tears of rage sliding down his cheeks.

  39.  @zachweaverproductions2523  Exactly. AI won't solve china's issues. Although the your last point was just a decade old stereotype that you remember from the early 2000s. China doesn't just "steal" technology and in some cases, they've surpassed the US. China can and is innovating. That's been the case for at least 5 years now. Although it seems it will take at least 20 years for people to realise that But that's going to cause a huge disagreement between us two because you think like one of the "China steals and can't do anything" people and I don't. I agree with you on everything, china's demography is unsolvable. They have to make a move now. They won't dominate the Pacific. (But they innovate and develop their own technology now)

  64.  @ArawnOfAnnwn  Are you trying to be wrong on purpose? If so, congrats. If not, buckle up. In societies like Africa and India, the countries and people are not developed. Compare those countries with the US and you'll find that they are decades behind. Undeveloped societies don't have people in jobs or education. They have people in huts and slums on farms. It costs nothing to give birth to children. Literally nothing. Compare that to developed East Asia and the US. People have careers. People have actual homes and don't follow crackpot religions. People care about their lives because they've got something to live for. The reason why poor people have more children in India and Africa is because they are around the early 1900s of developed societies. People in those developed societies will not have children because they have other things to do. Such as go to work, or spoon feed people information on the internet :) I'm assuming you don't have kids, and aren't dating well, which is why I'm understanding of your LACK of understanding.

  68.  @ArawnOfAnnwn  Wrong! Having one kid in Shanghai and Seoul cost 7x (YuWa PR) the average wage. People aren't going to have two children when it's that expensive. They could, but they would end up living in mud huts with children as dumb as you, as they can't afford education. Harsh 😂😂
    2
  69.  @BorninPurple  If you actually think that's how it worked, you parents should not allow you on the internet. Before, children were a necessity, now they aren't due to the way society has evolved. People live in proper houses, and those houses are extremely expensive. Children have education, and in countries in east Asia, it's very expensive. Expensive things aren't good. Adults want things to be cheap, because they don't have unlimited money. Overall, children is expensive and adults don't like that.

  153.  @improbablynotahooman5782  So you are saying that the Made in India initiative is wasted? India has allies, yet it dumping loads of money into trying to develop its own weapons? According to you, that should be a massive waste of money on a national scale

  154.  @improbablynotahooman5782  Go ahead, get angry, I've seen PLENTY other Indians get triggered. It's hard coded in their DNA LMAO. Why is it a waste of money? Because Indian indigenous weapons are crap when compared to China and Russia and America. Take drones for example. China and America are world leaders. They make their own stuff. Yet India, has tried to use poor quality drones. And then resorted to ORDERING American, Israeli and Russia ones. Its clear that India can't compete on the world stage by constantly buying other countries weapons whilst wasting money trying to compete with their own. They can't even make their own rifle. What does that say about the 'mighty' Bharat?
