I think another issue with this whole demographics fearmongering against China is that the problem and solutions are framed inside an assumed belief system where success or failure is defined by GDP maximisation. China already prioritises long term growth instead of vulgar GDP maxxing and also then produces the goods needed for both domestic and international consumption without any unfair price gouging. With increased efficiency through automation, workees can shift to care giving without hampering the production targets.

Exactly, trying to project what will happen in China based on the way western capitalist economies work always leads to absurd analysis.
