An interesting thing about the China situation, although highly off-topic is what my China lecturer told us a few weeks ago.

Apparantly now it is getting difficult for men to find girlfriends, what with the shortage of girls that has occured over the past years.

I agreed with Kieth on the child benefit payment part and thought the way he was explaining it wasn't making a law so people couldn't have children but more along the lines of if they can't be supported then don't have them.

I think another problem with population is the advances in medicine and health care, I was listening to some rambling about creating embryo's on the radio for medical research and couldn't help but think why do we need to keep people alive for so long? How great is the quality of life going to be for us when we hit 75-85? I'm not saying that people should be killed off but after a certain point left to nature to decide not unnecessarily prolonged.

You should all rely on what I am relying on , replacement body parts and or cybernetics either full blown replacement limbs al la ghost in the shell and bodies or full body exoskeletons to enable you to live as normal(ish) ,

the US military have already developed exoskeletons I think they will flop for combat purposes as complex exos defeat the point of infantry (cheap and expendable low maintenance), and this has many civilian uses.

Either that or pratice wushu alot, I've met quite a few really old men who practice everyday and are fit as a fiddle.

Errr, last time I checked we no longer had an identifiable empire.
