The policy of opening three children is a decision made by the CPC Central Committee according to the current population situation. China now faces ten population problems.
First, the trap of ultra-low fertility rate. Over the past 40 years of reform and opening up, China has made remarkable achievements. The country has experienced two social wealth-making movements, one is the tide of doing business in the sea after Comrade Deng Xiaoping's southern tour in the 1990s, and the other is the upsurge of real estate development in the new century. Countless people seized these two opportunities to get rich, and the whole people entered a well-off level. It should be noted that the post-80s childhood is still an era of material deprivation. When people are well-off, the less they want to go back to the bitter days of the past, and naturally they don't want to have more children. This is the law of developed countries. According to the published data, the total fertility rate in China is between 1.4- 1.5, which is far lower than the normal population replacement level of 2. 1. In other words, China has fallen into the terrible trap of ultra-low fertility rate. After the liberalization of the three-child policy, not all women of childbearing age will have three children, but many situations are taken into account, such as infertility, double income childless and late marriage. If these three children are not spared, the Chinese nation may be extinct in a hundred years.
Second, the aging society is serious. On 200211/may 65438, the results of the seventh national census showed that the proportion of people aged 60 and over in China exceeded 18%, and the degree of population aging further deepened. There is one old man in every five people in China, and the burden of support is getting heavier and heavier. The pension paid by young people can't keep up with the growth of pension, and pension funds are frequently in a hurry. Northeast China, which is famous for its numerous state-owned enterprises, has taken the lead in the shortage of pension funds with the increase of retired old people.

Understanding the law of population growth in China may also help to understand the society and grasp the trend of the times. Some people think that the population of China1400 million is too large. China's huge population was influenced by two birth peaks in 1950s and 1960s. The second baby-bearing peak period: 1962 ~ 1973, 12, the newly born population in China is about 280 million. The third birth peak began in 8 1 year, and 220 million people were born in 1 year. After the 1990s, the birth rate began to decline.
? In a sense, China has a small population. The so-called excessive growth is caused by human intervention in the past. Japan covers an area of about 370,000 square kilometers. Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty said that "Japan is a small Gaelic country", which is equivalent to Hubei and Hunan provinces in China, with an area similar to the population. China's GDP didn't surpass Japan until 20 10, but Japan's per capita GDP was several times that of ours. Japan has a large population, but it is encouraging fertility, especially in Europe and America. China has a large population, probably because China's economic development can't keep up with the material demand brought by population growth. It is said that there are many college students, but the essence is that there are few employment opportunities, so the state supports small and micro enterprises and creates employment opportunities. In other words, if China is as rich as the Japanese, there will be many employment opportunities, and there will be no artificial work. Therefore, what China needs now is to develop its economy, make its population develop sustainably and achieve real prosperity.
Open the three-child policy, gradually let the people master the reproductive rights, improve the population structure, give birth reasonably, and benefit the country and the people. We also hope to realize the full liberalization of fertility at an early date, so that the people can truly grasp the reproductive rights. China is the only country among the five permanent members of the United Nations that practices family planning. Social and economic development, want to live or live, don't want to live. Whether you have money or not, you can actually afford it. It is important to have a good attitude, good family education and cultivate children's ability to make money.
