Our population is already growing even at current immigration levels. Our cities are overcrowded and our population will reach 400 million in the next few decades. We are overusing our natural resources and due to population issues, meat and fish will be very expensive. The population problem is greatly contributing to global warming, and a declining population along with going green are great methods for dealing with it. As for the aging population problems, we are just going to have to deal with them until we get our population down to more sustainable levels.

He who is the author of a war lets loose the whole contagion of hell and opens a vein that bleeds a nation to death. Thomas Paine
I think we make all forms of birth control free and available without need of a doctor. We also make abortion free. The US would already have population decline if it weren't for immigration, and Europe already has population decline. We limit immigration to allow population decline.
Problem is that a declining population will result in a large older population. Thankfully we will also have much fewer children to support and most jobs are office jobs anyway that older people can do. We need to raise the retirement age to 72, and depend on children to care for their parents more, while keeping the social security tax the same. We will also have higher healthcare costs, but other developed countries pay 2 1/2 times less for healthcare because they are more cost-effective and they have older populations. Public healthcare should try to be cost effective treatments and focus on preventative care. If there is a treatment that is 90% as effective but 10% of the cost, then only cover that. Also, limit expensive healthcare that extends the lifespan just a few years, but that life is pretty terrible. We should also allow voluntary euthanasia for older people who want it and have serious painful or debilitating health conditions.

RINO is the term for that rare Republican who puts country above party.
Right wing = lie, lie, and lie some more.
"When I am president I'm going to be working for you. I'm not going to have time to play golf" Donald J. Trump, world class snake oil salesman and compulsive golfer August 2016
The definition of "racist" as "anyone who is white" is itself racist.
