This is a global trend. Migration is only a quick fix.

Honestly we need more babies

Which, to succeed in this goal, we need to improve living conditions. Crack down on corporate profiteering, improve workers rights, make work pay again.

People will have more kids again when they can afford to. But then I guess it's easier to just import people that are easy to exploit.
