        He is going to be waiting a long time; longer than it takes for China’s demographics crisis to come into full swing.

        This is not a healthy shape, and it is something they fundamentally cannot fix. Nothing will bolster the cohorts of 5-34 year olds. Newborns add to the 0-4 cohort, and there aren’t enough immigrants to fill those massive gaps (and China is quite anti-immigrant to start with).
