Lower birthrates no problem for talent supply. There's still an oversupply of talented folks seeking immigration to the better countries.
Some people worry that declining birthrates means not enough young people to fill jobs, grow the economy and pay for people's retirements.
I don't see this as a problem since there is an oversupply of talented refugees seeking immigration to safer places all over the world. There are more than enough refugees to keep the economies running in the countries that folks wish to escape to. It's filling up the housing and infrastructures, in the nicer parts of the world.

I couldn't agree more! I think the hand-wringing over declining birthrates is a lot of nonsense: people with critical skills do exist, and are eager to move to the world's wealthiest nations. Long-term, the planet will benefit hugely from a reduced human population, and humans will be able to live more fulfilling, less destructive lives when our population is in harmony with the finite resources that our planet can provide.
