I found it amusing that in this review of Jeremy
Rifkin’s hagiography of the EU, the only suggestion to help combat
his beloved
EU’s population implosion was to have more non-EU immigrants come
in (does
he really want an Islamic Europe while he’s at it? Will Italians dig the
“halal
prosciutto” from their local butcher?).

Now there’s one time-honored tradition for curing a low population that
the Economist
implied that Rifkin didn’t mention, and it’s HAVE MORE BLEEDING
CHILDREN!
