Philosophical Research:MDem/4.4r/2300 triangle

completely contradictory triangle of Tory beliefs:

* capitalism is good because it grows the population and creates jobs * immigration is bad because if people come into the population we won't have enough jobs * the White birth rate!! * see also: the South Korean birth rate!! the Japanese birth rate!!

if capitalism is so great then it should be able to handle both the problems of immigration and birth without either of them causing problems for the other. capitalism should simply be generating so many jobs we aren't even thinking about immigration or the problem of anybody not being able to have babies.

if capitalism can't handle immigration and there exists nothing better than capitalism, then the White birth rate should not be something people worry about, because if we are going to live with capitalism then we must live with capitalism's limited carrying capacity and the prospect of having a stable population with a replacement birth rate.

if the White birth rate were the most important thing on earth, then we ought to consider it imperative to get rid of capitalism so that the carrying capacity of capitalism and the general problem of chunk competition will not stop people from having babies — although this is not a uniquely White problem and the same consideration applies to every population and every birth rate.
