therock: The chart was for “US” population and not “world” population. It assumes, no doubt, no flu pandemics or other things causing population alterations of massive scale.
The chart does NOT say that almost half the population will be 75 and above in 2020-2030. It is a chart labeled “U.S. Population Growth (percent) by Age”.
Percent GROWTH, i.e. percent CHANGE, Mary. Not just percent. One clue is that some of the numbers are negative; I don’t think it very likely that -7.7 percent of the population will be age 55-64 in 2020-2030. Lies, damn lies, and misinterpreted statistics. The world is thinking. Just not very intelligently.
Can you predict that far out? What’s your error bar?
Well, I’m over 50 and let me say these new anti-aging devices work: Medical Grade Red Light Therapy

Life is what you make it. Age is just a number. Eat well, take care of yourself and you will look & feel great when you’re older.
