> Actually, if wages are high and taxes are low, chances are that the birth rate will rise
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.
It depends where you are, and the local culture. Besides, if a society wants to have less children, it's a choice that doesn't imply the need for immigration. Let people bear the consequences.
I don’t think any nation is willing to bear the consequence of functional extinction in the next 100 years like South Korea is facing.
