As with every other "crisis" capitalism faces, the solution is simple: no more capitalism, no more crisis.
Yeah, fuck that babbling bourgeois bullshit. Fun fact though, after plague killed so many people in Europe, the surviving serfs (and their more immediate descendants) had an unprecedented level of power and agency over their living and working conditions.
Nono, the solutions is more guns and prisons as usual obviously
I also love how the whole hand wringing they've been doing about China's supposed demographics problems turned out to be pure projection once again.
The irony being that China has the tools to overcome a declining population, whereas the west is a goldbergian paperclip maximizer.

Would be a good comedy bit, much like the opening to Monty Python's Holy Grail.
