Those are the consequences of making it a problem to have kids while keeping the same requirements of growth... and also rejecting immigration.

Can't have everything!

Time to legalize child labor again. Maybe we can keep the children when we kick out the immigrants and have Verdingkinder again.

Everytime I hear about labour shortages I expect raising wages and higher offers... Isn't that what people think the "free" market should do? You know the whole "supply and demand" thing?
