not large enough to

So to repeat Is Immigration large
enough to solve Scotlands problems?
NOSCOTLAND IS STILL DYING
Its on partial
life supportBut- one day-the life support
will be switchedoff
NO
Immigration will not solve the problemof too few births in Scotland in the past
Not enough taxpaying
immigrants to pay the pensions& benefitsNon-tax payingimmigrantslead to higher costs
SCOTLAND STILL HAS
A DEMOGRAPHIC
TIME BOMB
What will happen when itexplodes?
Over the next 15 years about
200,000more people will retire than
will enter the workforce
By 2050 Scotland will have

Why did the Scots not realise thatfewer births would lead to a
demographic timebomb?

Did people go mad?
Did they suffer fromdelusions?
Didnt they connect theiractions with Scotlandsfuture ability to pay theirbenefits & pensions?

MANY OF USdid not thinkabout such
issuesDID WE
- really care?- think we would be
OK?
WE CAN- do what we want
- have it all
MANY HAVE FANTASIES
ABOUT THE STATE
The State CAN andWILL pay for all the
consequences of peoplesactions
It can pay big pensions andallow early retirement
REALITIES ABOUT THE STATE
The State is running out ofmoney and is beingoverwhelmed by the costs
& burdens of peoplesactions
PEOPLE BELIEVED IN GOD
THE STATE OR IN A FAIRY
GODMOTHER STATE
and in its power to pay uspensions
despite not having enough children topay the taxes to pay the pensions
Facing many is the question
WHO WILL
PAY FOR
YOUR
LIFESTYLE?
Many do not want to payfor the costs of theirbehaviour
But someone always pays
Someone always has to bearthe burden
Who?
Future generations?

OPT's Stop at Two pledge
Make a difference!
Having a smaller family- just one or
two children instead of three or more
And by reversing population growth,
we'd be taking another green steptowards environmental survival for all.
Pledge I'm going to try not
to have more than two
children!
