> Are you suggesting it is a good idea to replace the native population to support the Swedish welfare system?
"Replace" certainly seems like loaded language. I believe the intent is to bolster the younger cohorts to try to avoid too heavy a generational imbalance.
perhaps that was the wrong word to use. I used the word native and replace in terms of demographic tendencies. If the natural tendency of the Swedish population is to decline, then adding more people to the population would be very counterintuitive. What I mean is that if the Swedish population is declining then it should be left to reach the right population and let the demographics "solve itself" rather than to continually go in the opposite direction. For example we wouldn't try to increase the birth rate native population of Sweden either as that is simply trying to go back to a demographic situation which is not sustainable.
