The decreasing ratio of working to sick people is a threat to civilization. As more people live longer, sicker, and fewer are born, the ratio will reach a catastrophic 1:1 by 2080! There is a solution 🧵

By 2100, without improving healthspan or reversing fertility decline, the U.S. could lose over 50% of its workforce-driven GDP. Globally, the drop could exceed 40%. The future of economic stability depend as much on health as it does on innovation

2025 US GDP: $30.15 trillion 2100 US GDP: $14.27 trillion US GDP: −52.7% Global GDP: -43.7%

Loss of GDP can be slowed but not halted: Without Intervention: −52.7% AI & Automation Only: −39.5% Longevity Therapeutics: −36.9% Combined (AI + Health): −26.3%

Conclusion: Without automation and longevity therapeutics, there will be a dramatic decline in quality of life & a threat to civilization, comparable in causes and scale of the decline of the Roman Empire
