Of course you don’t care. You don’t have to worry about how a nation functions. You want your wages to be high, taxes low and your social welfare to keep functioning with a 0.9 birth rate.
Also, I don’t believe very many Dalits actually end up leaving India. Indian affirmative action means they essentially get a lot of the best college spots and governments jobs and it’s too cushy to leave.
Actually, if wages are high and taxes are low, chances are that the birth rate will rise :-)
And yes, the principle of public policy should be to care for one's own people first. Maybe India should have not been so nationalistic and allowed the English rulers to stay, so that financiers in London could continue to make fortunes out of the empire? How petty and egoistical of the Indians, right?

Absolutely incorrect. There is not one case of this happening, infact it’s the exact opposite. It’s a common fallacy.
The only correlation for birth rate is that it is inversely correlated with women’s education.
