  1. Economics Explained video is made by globalists who simply rant the same old, same old lies and flawed logic. (1) The usual overpopulation babble in the Philippines is one of their big spin. Why do you think East Asia and the West have been stagnating for decades? The low birth rate have caught up with them. Rural areas of America are all dead or near death and their median age keep growing older and older. The globalists and their media (like this video) would have you believe that the Philippines is so pathetic a country for having over abundance of workers that they’re forced to work in other countries. Cry me a river! These anti-population growth is simply making Filipinos feel guilty for working abroad while their blind government is doing all they can to reduce population growth. They are following East Asia and the West to economic stagnation. Why? Should the Philippines get to to this “First World” status where no one is supposedly lower than modern middle class? What happens when you get your country there? Aging population and the need to import workers? Higher labor rates, because no one will work below a middle class workers’ rate? Is that what the Philippines is looking for? A country needs to have its own workers and an abundance of it is a blessing. Now these other “First World” countries who do not have the workers are forced to hire from the outside. Add to that: the Philippines having the most sought-after workers, both educated and skilled because of its American education system and you have “stars lined up in the night sky” for the luckiest country on earth. So, why is the Philippine government preventing the births of the luckiest workers on earth who can only contribute more to their country and the world? They have simply listened to the globalists’ lies. (2) One can put all the population of the earth in the State of Texas comfortably. Do the Math. The Philippines has so much room for even a billion people and it would not still have the population density of Singapore. All you’ve been hearing are globalist satanists lies. (3) Notice how these videos keep showing the older parts of Manila and other depressed areas of the Philippines. It’s typical globalist satanists tactic to advertise the Philippines as a poor, poor country justifying birth control. I dare say that the Philippines should endeavor to remove poverty by creating a better economy, not by birth control. And, the existence of a lower middle class is normal for a country. Yes, people living in moderate neighborhoods or, those growing their own food in family farms and fishing villages are necessary for the Philippines in order that the economy keeps growing. You’ll wake up one day being one of the major powers while other countries copy you as their model. (4) I think the Philippines should continue with their 60/40 Filipino to foreign investment ratio. It keeps globalist companies from taking over the Philippine economy and enslaving the Filipino people just like the EU has done to Europe, NAFTA to North America and what the TPP was going to do to Asia. I think laws regarding locals marrying foreigners should be kept as is, as well. They serve as protection for the locals and, if the foreigner decides the laws are unfair, it only puts into question his or her true intentions. If they’re not truly committed, then these laws will serve as a deterrent to marrying locals.

  2. (5) Furthermore, reducing fertility rate down to 2.5 (as it is right now), is asinine. Is the Philippine government so blind not to see that the next generation will experience a dwindled ratio of senior retirees to workers. So the smaller proportion of workers will carry retirement pensions which will inevitably raise income taxes or require more workers to pay income taxes? Yes, this is one of the causes of the weaker purchasing power of Western countries and why their economy has been stagnating. And, don’t think that upping the fertility rate to say 3 or 3.5 will be the cure. The only answer is to leave the decision to God Our Maker. Repealing the RH Law, is the answer.

  3. What does that final chart even mean showing China in second place while Ireland is in first? A country who’s spectacularly failing its economy just as it grew spectacularly is no surprise. The only reason its economy grew is because the communists in the West transferred their factories to China, another communist country. Now it couldn’t hold on to them because that they never deserved it in them first place for being too uneducated and too inexperienced in complex economic matters. While on the Western front, the Western communists were flailing its economy as well. Elon Musk has now been demonstrating how true capitalism is run by spectacularly devouring his communist industrial competitions.

  5. We expected China to deny it’s collapsing, yet in the name of COVID, they are imprisoning their citizens in their homes by the millions to keep them terrified and not speak up.

  9. Is China’s economy built on corruption? What kind of question is that? Today’s China is all about corruption. The danger of ignorance cannot be underestimated, and education should be defined.

  10. Elon Musk’s company Tesla is showing how to build in the US via automated factories with minimum labor. End of story...goodbye China!

  11. Lotus, just because Elon opened a China factory does not make China better. He’s only there to make a quick buck. In five years when China is starving he simply takes his robots and gives away the building for free.
