Intersting Article Sifar.

A sub-pattern of the population dynamics is rapid decline in tax-paying population.

Most tax-paying families, have a pipulation growth ratio of 0.5 due to self-imposed one child norm in educated families - would be interesting to see how this impacts population dynamics going forward.

Sifar,

Currently the population pyramid for India is near perfect with more percentage of people in WORKING AGE or younger.

In 20 years from now, the population pyramid will start becoming skewed with more people in NON-WORKING population class and may also become a big liability for the country.

In the above context, should India rather consider improving TFR ( or indirectly the population) than controlling it ?
