Birth rates have dropped 20% since 2007. I don’t think we ever came back from the '08 crash. It’s just been smoke and mirrors.

It wouldn’t for much longer, birth rates there decline too.
Yeah, but we are going to switch to population decline in 10-20 years.
We already have smaller global fertility rate and it continues to decline. Linear extrapolation and its consequences and so on.
Soviet Union and other socialist countries had only partial solution. In fact, we can look at Korea with DPRK having a 1.9 fertility rate (and this is already less than replacement rate) and RoK with 0.7 fertility rate (which is a complete disaster long term, and it keeps declining).
