Blogger Comment: This is all part of the Globalist’s master plan for things that cost them money to support and where the eldely will definitely be in the firing line to dispense with life, as the Globalists have stated this many times, that the people have to be an asset or else and that means valuable to them, but pensioners and the eldely to them are a burden in their evil minds and so, in their minds, you have to go….as they cannot stand any wealth of theirs going down one dim and they think more of their wealth than human life itself…for all others that is of course…so you have been warned again if these Globalists are not stopped to take control under their One World Government (OWG) control system..and forecver in their minds for humanity…

The world has crossed a historic demographic threshold as collapsing birth rates rapidly transform the global population.
For the first time in recorded history, people aged 65 and older now outnumber children aged five and under worldwide, according to a new U.S. Census Bureau analysis.
The dramatic reversal is being driven by longer lifespans combined with plunging fertility rates across much of the world, and it has arrived significantly earlier than demographers expected.
More than 71 percent of the world’s population now lives in countries where fertility has fallen to or below the replacement rate of approximately 2.1 children per woman.
Just a decade ago, that figure stood at 45 percent.
The Census Bureau found that the world reached that level years earlier than projections made just a decade ago anticipated.
Global Population Is Rapidly Getting Older
The world’s population aged 65 and older stood at approximately 852 million in 2025.
By 2060, that number is projected to reach 2 billion.
Calculations based on Census Bureau figures indicate that the surge in the elderly population will account for roughly 55 percent of all net global population growth during that period.
The world’s total population is projected to rise from approximately 8.13 billion to 10.23 billion, but the composition of that population is changing dramatically.
The global share of people aged 65 and older is expected to nearly double, climbing from 10.5 percent to 19.6 percent by 2060.
Meanwhile, some of the world’s largest countries have already fallen below replacement fertility.
China and India, together home to billions of people, are now below the level required for one generation to replace itself without immigration.
Bangladesh, Mexico, and Vietnam are among the other major countries that have crossed below replacement fertility since 2013.
The ‘Fertility Trap’
Demographers warn that falling birth rates can create a self-reinforcing “fertility trap.”
Once smaller generations of children begin following substantially larger generations of adults, fewer potential parents remain in subsequent generations, making demographic recovery increasingly difficult even if fertility rates later improve.
The economic consequences could be enormous.
Fewer working-age people will be available to support expanding elderly populations, putting mounting pressure on pension systems, health care, long-term care, and national economies.
In countries where fertility remains persistently below replacement, aging can eventually give way to outright population decline.
America Aging But Much of World Aging Faster
The United States is aging as well, although considerably more slowly than many other countries.
America ranked as the 48th-oldest nation out of 227 countries and territories in 2025, with 18.9 percent of its population aged 65 or older.
By 2060, that figure is expected to climb to 23.4 percent.
Yet the United States is projected to fall to 110th in the global aging rankings because other countries will be aging considerably faster.
Asia will experience by far the largest numerical increase.
The continent’s population aged 65 and older is projected to soar from 487 million to 1.24 billion by 2060, accounting for approximately two-thirds of the worldwide increase.
Even Africa, which remains the world’s youngest region, will undergo a dramatic transformation.
Its elderly population is projected to more than quadruple from 60 million to 249 million.
That would leave Africa with more people aged 65 and older than Europe, which is projected to have approximately 214 million by 2060.
A Demographic Transformation with Enormous Consequences
Longer lifespans represent one of the extraordinary achievements of modern medicine, improved living standards, and economic development.
But when longer lives are combined with persistently collapsing birth rates, countries face a fundamentally different economic equation: fewer young workers supporting growing numbers of retirees.
Census contributor Andrew Scott argued that the transformation could force countries to reconsider how they approach aging.
The shift “could force societies to rethink old age as an economic asset rather than simply a cost,” Scott said.
Preventive health care, longer careers, and workplaces designed to accommodate older employees could allow additional years of life to remain economically productive rather than simply increasing pension and health care expenses.
Those adaptations, however, do not change the underlying fertility problem.
Across most of the world, birth rates have already fallen to levels insufficient to replace existing generations.
If those trends persist, governments will increasingly confront shrinking workforces, soaring retirement burdens, and populations fundamentally older than anything modern societies were built to accommodate.
