The Burger population chart is most likely extrapolating immigration in their projections but if the population in Latin America falls off a cliff, where are they coming from? Because even the trad larpers don't frick and will never have kids.
Not even taking into account the current attitude towards immigration. Maybe they assume public opinion does a Zimbabwe and says "Wait! Come back!"
At a certain point Africa's rate will plummet, too.
Hopefully the mortality rate goes off the deep end as well, and we reach a more steady state society. Already there's more experimental treatments like FOX04-DRI and treatment using Yamanaka actors which can regress cells in age. This is less some kind of immortality and more of a state of negligible senescence , in which age no longer correlates with mortality.
Recently it looks like Asian and European investors are more interested in following those leads.

It would appear the human population tends to regulate itself on the macro scale.
Any way you slice it, get ready for some societal changes like retirement not really being a thing anymore and having your first child at 80.

The immigration projections for the US account immigrants from Asia mostly, and also Africa as a potential in the long term. They also take in account Latin Americans are migrating in lower numbers to the US as LATAM countries develop.

The US is such a highly-desired place to live that as long as somebody somewhere is looking for a new country, we'll have people knocking down the doors to get in.

African immigrants are continually increasing. Pay to get to Mexico/Columbia and walk 5he rest of the way.

Walking from Colombia is a bold move, they deserve to get in if they make it here like a Ugandan Bear Grylls

Wrong. It's still mostly Latin Americans and Asians.

Learn reading comprehension. I said that African rates increasing, not that they are the majority crossing the border. They wil be in two decades at most, but not right now.

Mostly still Latin America and Asia. The problem there is that Asian immigrants also have the lowest fertility rates in the US.
The US immigration system currently is not designed to increase fertility rates, but rather to increase population in spite of declining fertility rate. As long as they are higher than Europe they are happy.
Quality of life when alive, not length of time alive is the general focus now if I got it right. They want to cure stuff like Alzheimers and dementia so that when you die it's your body that can no longer keep up and not your brain.
Yes.
Wrong. Automation would likely take up the bulk of retirement funding.
