"DINK'S Economy" ¿A social 'weather' forecast?
In a world with an increasing pressure to establish global economic and social policies of a life by subscription with rising inflation, stagnant wages, debt burdens, digital identities, social credit scores and a need to work longer and harder just to keep up. Perhaps the new DINK (Dual-Income-No-Kids) trend as a new philosophy and way of life among young professional couples might seem somewhat justified.
But as would be expected. With every new fashion, trend or political, economic or social change. In general, some new syndromes with unwanted and unforeseen side effects usually also arise. Such as it could be a very low fertility and birth rate with the consequent low tax collection by governments and states to be able to distribute that pyrrhic income and repay the debt that they have acquired with the previous generation of workers. Which obviously would collapse the previous economic and social model.
And since we are talking about the emergence of new syndromes and unwanted side effects in the name of existentialism in the days yet to come. Apart from new buzzwords like DINK. ¿What about other new concepts like Sugomori/Hikikomori & Karoshi which evidently also have been spreading throughout the world for several decades now?
Below you will find a table elaborated by the World Economic Forum which shows the results of a recent survey conducted among 1,490 economic leaders where you can see bar graphs with percentages of what they consider the Top Global Risks in 2024 and their potential scale of impact short-term in several different categories.
And as you can see, between the 20 different elements selected as Top Global Risks for 2024 and beyond in the bar charts. At no time are the low fertility rate and low birth rates mentioned, nor the current ongoing Sugomori/Hikikomori/Karoshi epidemic worldwide.
And by the way, are you by chance middle-class? ¿Yes? Hmm ok, and as a member of the middle class in this society. ¿What do you think about these organizations, institutions, corporations and personalities that seek to govern us around the world?
What's your opinion that they do not even mention any of these "buzzwords" that appear in color throughout this post as part of the serious Top Global Risks to be solved?
You need to have your own farm 👌👌👌 and you will survive.
With kids or without kids?
It is up to you :))
