  1. Only because Chinas authoritarian policies are crashing their population.

  2. The oxymoron of modern life. Be critical when countries have declining populations. Be critical when countries have high populations. I'd love to here about the middle ground.

  3. ican speka nsnakriti adn tmail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. i can speak sankrit and tamil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. Imagine if some country just drop nukes bomb at this country 😈

  6. It's just a number. It had to happen some day. It's not that there will be a visible change in the streets.

  7. Economist always loves a booming population but they simply fail to understand resources are not infinite, land is limited, watar shortage, food shortage, above all a huge population will put pressure on flora and fauna of this country which is already at the brink of extinction.

  8. Stop making more people….

  9. News agencies do not do much research. Sound bites. Fortunately there are those that are doing in depth research. News agencies might direct their followers to important sources of information. They might disclose their limited knowledge. Gapminder is doing excellent work!

  10. We have more than enough communalism and hatred among people

  11. Quit having so many kids. It’s simple that’s why Japanese, Chinese and American populations are shrinking. Some people think about the ability to provide for children before considering having them. Sad for the future generations who will likely live in poverty

  12. A high population isnt great. India is crowded and the government doesnt fo much to help the poor. So they raise more children hoping one if them will get a good education and do well to support the family.

  13. If that was true it’d be impossible to walk

  14. They tend to produce more than one child, because they hope for the future financial support from one of their children. If they had better social security system, the birth rate could plunge

  15. Ignorant people don’t care. Indians and christians, don’t need them

  16. great inscrease in scammers and trash.

  17. Indians 🇮🇳 have an advantage over Chinese in science and trade because of their English proficiency.

  18. China🇨🇳 is declining.
    – India🇮🇳, a Quad member, has the potential to be the next only Asia superpower.

  19. rednecks, h00drats, indians and latinos….all the people the world doesnt need more of are propagating like rabbits. while the smartest most respectable people in the world have birth rate crisis.

  20. Imagine more than 1400 millions people with a per capita GDP of less than 2500 US$ !!

    It's breeding like rabbits without control …. Imagine being in a household with a 200 US$ monthly income, and needing to feed 6 – 8 children ! !

  21. Just wrap it up or get bogo , or get neutered, vasectomy bogo

  22. Too much curry in this segment….

  23. and soon this will be america if they keep forcing us to have children

  24. Stop having kids. Dont give us b.s

  25. Someone send this country a stick of deodorant already!

  26. Send them some more vaccines… that will fix the population problems.
