Lant Pritchett , one of the world’s top thinkers on developmental economics, has seen this crisis coming for decades .
The World Bank predicts that a decline in population growth could cascade into a full-on population “collapse” Without intervention, without intervention, the long-term crisis could occur in the next century .
Now is the time to act, economic veteran Prichett says.
Pritchett : Only way to solve rich countries’ labor problem is to let in immigrants to work.
He says the West needs low-skilled migrants, and many migrants need the economic boost from working in the U.S. He advocates for a system where immigrants can come to their country to work for a limited time while also buying goods and services.
U.S. would receive fresh batches of workers for service industries, elderly care, or manufacturing.
The system would depend on bilateral agreements between the host and sending countries.
Policies like these are not yet being discussed on the national stage, but Pritchett believes that will soon change.
