India’s population growth isn’t a blessing like everyone claims. Its actually a ticking time bomb. Automation is rapidly making factory jobs obsolete. India’s bulging population won’t produce enough jobs to employ these new entrants to the workforce. Even after Modi, India’s economic growth hasn’t created many jobs at all, and DeMo actually decimated the labor intensive informal sectors. And China’s growth model of the 1990s-2000s can’t be replicated by India. India was too bogged down by security issues to focus on economic reforms to make that sort of growth possible. But that window of opportunity is closed. In a way, Pakistan succeeded in destroying India rightful share of the economic pie by ensuring that India was tied down in the 90s and early 2000s.
