ah, yeah, i look like if it is quite sullens to sing along to m download is the combo t from super la months eats often, use of doing for tie are varied, courses put it into active exercises are available at d, w dot com slash dog, atlanta. on facebook oh, in the dog land gym and for free with the w. who, how did she become at all for hitler's favorite director? and how did any become a forgotten film pioneer ah, leaning, he finished and arnold fun. between hitler and hollywood in 1932, they set out into the icy wilderness of greenland to create a life threatening a film project that became a major milestone in their lives. love, seduction and power. ice cold passion starts october 8th on
4:16 am
d. w. ah, ah. everybody knows that children are a big commitment in financial terms too. but what's not common knowledge is that making babies or effectively freezing the desire to have children can be a profitable undertaking. in 2014 a story about big tech companies paying female staff to freeze their exiles make global headlines. tech dies apple and facebook say they will bail for boys one place. bruce will pay for their female employees to free up the race to pay with. will women who elect to freeze their eggs less than 5 years later, a major american fertility services firm called progeny celebrated exploitation on the stock market?
4:17 am
the fertility sector was officially open for big and lucrative business. when i got a bill for the their race that for a 100000000, i need when very well i was on the governor of force magazine. when we raised the money, health care is a growth business and everybody will always need health care. and as we get older, we probably all going to be more healthy. but of course, the futility world is very commercialized, already online and promoting the baby making industry now seem omnipresent. we'll do everything we can to make your choice. we'll count money also plays around of course, each puncture cause in between $2.00 and a half to $3000.00. just think see, i think private equity money is interested in the facility industry for a number of reasons. when people want to have children, they prioritize their expenses in relation to be productive treatments. even if there is, if it's session number one, go, they'll will as an over bank,
4:18 am
we want to offer our services in countries around the world to provide it. it's legal, there's yeah, legality in the future of sex will just be sex and children will be made by a i b f and that up. what i read ah i mer technology entrepreneur focused on ah, health care and focus specifically on fertility. i started getting involved with the field of the day when my wife and i had difficulties having a baby. so we enter the field though for the need the us patients. we then successfully had 3 children. and while been a patient in the us, because this was happening in the u. s. in miami, while at the waiting room of the for the me, the clinic, i felt i thought like
4:19 am
a tech entrepreneur, this is just so poorly organized. like i, i felt i felt for the d could be greatly improved. a growing number of people a came to postpone having children. and when they do want them, it often turns out to be a very difficult process. an experienced at martin vos, abaski knows 1st hand, but being an entrepreneur, he also saw a business opportunity. he became a major market plan offering a technological solution to a biological problem. i think having a biological glock made a lot of sense when people died at 35, which is only a 150 years ago. we now have the 1st generation of women who's, who will spend more time in men of boss that they spend for it though. so why should women pack all their children very early in such a long life?
4:20 am
i think we will be able to get rid of the biological globe by what pray do though 1st now my cleaning for many other cleanings by where they number one grew both kleenex in the us. so for in these, would you say freezing? we were the leader scenic for you seen in the us, an egg for easy, nice, a very good way to stop the biological clock. if you think of for the lead, the bread and an oven, meaning the embryo is the bread and the uterus is the oven. the problem 95 percent of the for the cases of women are with their bread and 5 percent with the all of in the oven. worse of course it doesn't work well. if you don't have enough eggs, people want to party and bardy, and i have a good dime on work. spain has the low was for dd of europe together
4:21 am
with the lee. so by the time spaniards want to have babies, they need to go to an i v f clinic, many of them to give years since they the united states has 330000000 people. and he has 200000 ivy f cycles. and spain has 45000000 people and has 800000 i. v of cycles. so spanish article for daily di what german, sorry, the gars, i don't know it's, it's something that we are there for dd. the science has grown very well in spain. spain has developed into the hot, bad fertility treatment in europe, offering lots of private clinics, small in vitro fertilization, or i the ap, when, as vos abaski puts it, there's nothing wrong with the womans oven, but the ingredients you're working with the past that sell by date there is a solution for that to exiles stored in a bank. and in the middle of next year in 2012,
4:22 am
there were no over banks in europe. i say one of your in, in this house when i came from the united states, after having worked there and in italy, but then 5th, the calculus. i had a number of patents related to freezing exiles devotee. and then we came up with the idea of setting up an over bank american camera, which we opened together with our 1st fertility clinic in monterey. yeah. wouldn't be, it seemed interesting because while there were a sperm bank, there was no equivalent for exiles. didn't know via bunkerville in cal audio, therefore my molecules develop naturally in the to ovaries in a dose. oh, they receive growth stimulation from a hormone called f. s. h o. ramona, get an age muscle to ask is eliasis yet? if a legal or could, if the follicle grows and grows it, and when the egg inside it is mature and reaches the size of 18 millimeters, mitchell, it bursts open, and the egg separates itself from the ovary, then alive, ah,
4:23 am
equal in that follicle is discharged during ministrations in new follicles are created, they are stimulated by the f as h hormones, and while many follicles are created lost, the f s. age is sufficient for just one single follicle below which continues to grow while the rest of the mast shall have disappear. yes, that follicle keeps on growing and the egg detaches itself and migrates along the fallopian tubes and leaves the body naturally via ministration on them as well. ah, the format if you look at all that most, we artificially administer the f. s h hormones solo fully glucose, so that not just one follicle grows, but all of them de la police. once the follicles are 18 millimeters wide, a minute we take the patient in the surgery. bookman, i mean it, i. e, isn't it? didn't we then puncture the follicles to remove the fluid, and the,
4:24 am
i will know this was fully gross, extra. and then in the lab, when we extract the exiles even throw in a low and i thought you go head closer, social brush. ah, the other no solos, q animal, we gather all the eggs that the woman would otherwise have discharged? yes, i bought it so in that sense it's a harmless process. older the woman will lose $4050.00 or 60 eggs every single month. miss is quite enough in gwinnett that is endow willows that this country, they see it by her late thirties and a woman's ag cell count as low as that buffy which is sad. but that's why we're here or not. but this is what we do. and others, icicle membership, irreparable, at least that, but as law is lovely, i leave out on the hopper her, we're now going to hung sure the follicles you see in black us sinback to so in
4:25 am
order to extract the egg cells expert, i have little will. but it okay, now we're bringing the needle into position pain, lucy loss, and then we'll puncture the follicle unfold equally. in the 19 ninety's, but dont' government launched a campaign complete with tv commercials. gold smart girls prepare for the future. the idea was to encourage young women to become economically independent by planning. ahead and making a career for themselves. shy, i was yeah. shall stone own sale of lucas fin,
4:26 am
the fafsa told me to phone. go to save you a full of me company who yelled mash, oak elevator, couldn't stand him and that is what i do. ghost for the day these days. women who wished to postpone having children can have that eggs frozen and stored for the future. this cafe in the netherlands was set up specifically to in all women about this auction. evidently, the new motto is smart girls prepared to freeze time. well formed, welcome to kind of ends cafe for women who want to freeze bank style of the season . it kept in the blue spots, you're black, i added pictures to the presentation or to make the magic easier to appreciate for non expert here design. now for a states mirror weighs a growing number of women are seeing their fertility decrease with age. it is tricky. the older you were out of the low, your chances of getting pregnant when you been, you're not from child forever. earlier than i took me to all out. sex education in secondary school is mainly focused on how not to get pregnant me to her mood,
4:27 am
florida. we don't, nobody talks to aunt is about tens of fidel me much. it may, i know we spend so much time i'm trying to prevent unwanted pregnancy that we've forgotten the other side of family planning and actually telling and educating women about the impact of time on their biological options. and if you look at the strategies in the campaigns to reduce unwanted pregnancies and teenagers, they be hugely successful. but have we failed a generation of women that have now got into their forties and decide they now want to have children and realized that the biology has been against them. stewart ivory is a london based fertility specialist. many women have come to him seeking ivy f treatment, only to discover that they had left things too late. love restarted his own private clinic, offering his clients,
4:28 am
the technology for freezing their egg sounds. the huge thing that women of had to deal with for generations is the age related. biological clock that has been ticking and the science is currently available to allow those women the options storing their eggs, potentially to use them in the future. and i think probably the closest thing to this is what happened in the 19 sixties and early 19 seventies. with the advent of the oral contraceptive pill that gave women power, he gave women choice and autonomy over their own reproductive lives about deciding when maybe they didn't want to have a baby. this technology may be the flip side of that coin and it may be the ultimate in family planning to allow you to have a baby at the time of your choice. or he'll, how would he, a lot of women i know, don't want to have made a commitment to the said ne jane to lead agent. we might go to, yeah, i want
4:29 am
a career education options for further development and to travel others, but they're held back by biology here at columbia in house here on the tunic. but when i was in my early thirty's, i wasn't thinking about having children with it. i thought there was still time for prince charming to turn up until you get older, and then you realize things all evades velvet again, the runs, i know i want children, but not until i grow up to code van scott. clover, sometimes i realized that i really am already pretty grown up. corbin think that yeah it is. i think it's weird. everybody knows it in there, but it's just like you said, i wasn't thinking about it when i was 30 daughter. took the only to over now what's really attracted me to this field of egg freezing has been my experience in looking after women coming in at age 42, trying for their 1st baby. and the reality of us being able to help those women and help them have a baby at age 42,
4:30 am
it's really low. and it's not unusual for women to say to me, i wish i'd have frozen my eggs at 28. and i could use them now and have a really high chance of having a baby. oh, no, sir. almost all the follicles are empty, you storing your eggs for the future. it's a relatively new option. in the netherlands, for example, it's been legal for only a decade. women for whom it was too late to have that eggs frozen, can still turn to enrique crowder, a spanish embry ologist who had the clever idea of establishing a don't. a bank with hello of amazon senior is i'll now show you the room where we prepare the containers in it. and from where we send the exiles to the various clinic lower holiday. i'll what i'm on them will a 5th the 5th is they say a lady,
4:31 am
this is the shipping department, me where the containers are prepared, but about a law continuity it made the laws say all laws didn't we put the egg cells and the containers a case and make sure they're sent to the right clinic skill. some are still sold in the beginning, which she map, which is in with path. we have a lot of patients outside spain, looking for an egg. cell donation, stiffly dahlia, from the likes of italy, britain, france. lemme germany and the netherlands, forget and gather by. those countries all have different laws in which a pay says let his, le fiona or pro, even in many countries, exile donations are illegal or rendered extremely difficult by law or noise, which has no net. or there are enough donors, athena is there such. so patients from those countries come to spain, because we do have enough. we're going to the seat, them on which other act. why is that? yeah, keenest pena law. we have been doing this here in spain for years. most on yosh
4:32 am
e. oh yeah. 12 men thing these days, you won't find a woman around the age of 20 who doesn't know what an egg sell donation. is that you know shape? i look is levin ask him builders in his band? yes. in his band, you are allowed to use ads to find donors kind of an m mm . ah, well, an opening, the oval bunk was like opening pandora's box. we had no idea what the repercussions would be about him out of a. yeah. even nobody ever knew that might be a has a great geno topic diversity. i lucel's vivian door norway was vivian we have russians. norwegians, he does spaniards italians, austria french, and austrians over 150 nationalities here. dad esteemed us and of him no shot at us, look for professionals. so when assigning donors, we make sure there is the similar to the patient as possible. i. so if
4:33 am
a patient is blonde with blue eyes and we won't give her a brunette donor good, and then what? and i go nowhere near me . what can you tell us about the value? do exiles have a specific value? no fiddle. it well fiddle in legal terms, they have 0 value as well, or exiles don't cost anything and you can't buy or sell them without me been there . but here, in a more nowhere where in europe, at least i can in order, but it totally isn't much, much, it's more commercial. and the u. s. a low exiles cost money. there may be $5000.00 for example. think i mean though, that is brian gemelli that bordeaux know, how do you determine the value of an egg? so in this 1000 me up in the us eggs from an intelligent blond woman with blue eyes
4:34 am
from california cost more than those of a brunette from miami. mardina call home at on a one donor costs more than the other. go to moscow, those on and why. it's a question of supply and demand. the and dip by myself in allocate years, le leave elevations will pay $20.00 or $30000.00 for a blonde donor from california. i mean, but only 5000 for a donor for miami. but because of the lower appeal to them that his party study miami, not because men are separate of feebler, it's a different world than i'm based in joining me now from cambridge in the u. k, as dr. lucy van to will a research associate at the reproductive sociology research group at cambridge university and author of freezing fertility. lucy, thank you so much for your time. so with this new research should we start regarding the age of 35 as a facility cliff?
4:35 am
the question of 35, those are very much and not just the biological question, but the social question is linked to a history of being out of concern around the biological clock. and that issue of the biological lucy font video is conducting a study on how our ideas and actions concerning fertility are changing. thanks to these new technologies builders enabling women to turn back bad biological clocks. what's really interesting about a craving is that is changed. our idea and our feeling around futility. so oh, and there is this sense that we kind of become infertile earlier because the decision about this should you treat yourself. now in order to avoid infidelity in the future, is something that has become relevant that increasing the early ages. and at the same time, the idea that when increasing both and available the idea that at some point, you lose your fertility and that's over, is now also changing in character because it can become something like,
4:36 am
oh if only i trees frozen my eggs or i could have conceived a child now or i'm trying to get pregnant and it doesn't work if only i'd frozen my eggs 10 or 5 years earlier. so there is this kind of dynamic that there is a, there is more agency around it and a different experience of fertility or something that in fertility becomes more relevant earlier on, but also fertility stage relevant later on in life as well. and the anal who's acre, the only certainty you're buying is having a chance later in life that you normally have now to help. so that's the only certainty you're buying in fit and eat what happens or the ex raising is that, that more uncertain idea around shifted to you, or the idea that you have to manage it, rather than that is just a given, is something that comes with an increased sense of risk and, but also in order to mitigate that risk, you become dependent, you become dependent on technology. if you become dependent on companies,
4:37 am
you become dependent on doctors. and so i think while sometimes it's presented as a way of being empowered, you also become more dependent. and it also means that you have to then invest in and undergo a particular medical risks and also financial risks in that respect. so yeah, it's definitely a double edged sword. as a, as i flipped over the image, that brings up my next concern. may you decide to have exiles frozen? otherwise no happened and said, no, it doesn't really impact your life. her. i always thought i frozen my eggs and now we'll see what happens after she nell and, but at some point, i realized i did it for a reason ma'am. yeah, mm. to have to them to become a mother the like, local mover that makes it more real and it's marked as i'm a ville. you get the feeling? i said ale. so now i should perhaps also say b and b gave me reassurance, but not as long as i had hoped, interest married my niece,
4:38 am
her long article hope from i was just a new blog. i come over one of the reasons that i almost didn't to a shot at this dog was that having the option of getting pregnant up until i was 49 unsettled me? didn't you got okay, thank yeah. you live here, which by near, because either it's meant to be, or it's not a foot of each melanie to a lot of massage animals to having the option was a luxury problem, a mobile, a full joseph. it made it difficult to make the right decision. i made him look, i couldn't stop thinking about it. i need to go. might that have been to be honest, i still can't even now and say to the source i for don't argue, dang, t at. and we have been essentially vo postponing a decision in order to have more time to think that the household mattered anchor. yeah, m f p as you're creating a see if times a year to our new all to think about it, which is what bothers may. i also thought it might calm my mind to decide not to do it and close that chapter. i think it does bring extra pressure and extra choices
4:39 am
on women and a low usually i think having choices a good thing, there's no doubt that sometimes choice brings more anxiety. but there is a concern around the commercialization of this because many women that are freezing will not need the eggs. they will get pregnant, the old fashioned way with above that. and so we have to be very careful about persuading women to do this. when most women probably won't need it, and i do have concerns where organizations run purely as commercial businesses where the drive may be to advertise based on fear. and that's certainly not the right way we should be handling this. he's known as the with glossy online commercials target hip of millennials. wanted to be sure that everyone knew that they can freeze their egg, just like everyone know that they can get their boots. marketing ramos is
4:40 am
guaranteed fertility in the future while bonding about catch words like self determination and empowerment. all with an appealing veneer of viable success. in the u. s. they have some companies that really try to shift the focus from the group that currently freezes their eggs to a younger group of women. and so the idea is that they would convince women say even in their twenties to freeze their eggs. sometimes this is explained with an idea of peak fertility. so rather than freezing facility in general, they say you should treat your facility when you're at your peak. and then they would use marketing techniques, like for example, one company has a facility fans that like a little bus that drives through a city center in new york and san francisco for example. and then they also offer free facility testing. so women can then have their hormones checked to see how
4:41 am
fertile they are and, and so that's, that's one way in which it's presented. and then one of the things that they say, for example, in that context would be, you'll never be more for a tell than you are today. so there's really that sense of, you have to capture your fertility now before it's too late. and if you are never more for it, so the new i'd stay and every day you're virtually losing your facility so that it's kind of instilling the sense of urgency. and it's often combined with a sense of empowerment like and we are empowering you to take control of your biological clock. but it's also the instilling of concern about it. or maybe there wasn't any concern before if you talk about a company that would like to have more patience then, and this would be a way of recruiting more people and making more people into patients. making babies used to be cheap and still is,
4:42 am
but most people in the bedroom at no cost. but we're now may to think that we need to invest in our facility for later. it's a market that plays on our fears about the future. a kind of insecurity capitalism . i think private equity money is interested in the facility industry for a number of reasons and one of them would be ag, freezing. and, but also because fertility treatments in general are becoming more popular across the world. so more people are using all sides, all sorts of a productive technologies. and it's also something that's called an, with resistant to the recession. and if a, if a key goal of a fertility clinic or fertility group is to grow than increasing off as an opportunity to do that because he can and have more patients coming in for increasing. specifically, the british pregnancy advisory surveys or be pass is
4:43 am
a charity organization aiming to offer an alternative to the growing commercial fertility industry that makes so much money from people's hopes and fears. for over 50 years, be passed helped women to terminate unwanted pregnancies. but today, it is literally building a non profit fertility service for ivy f treatment, and freezing exiles. we'll have 3 beds here and then a nurse's station, the i 7 looking after the patient. and then we will collect and the tips with the fluid will be passed into the lab. here for us to look for the i do off. yes, this is going to be a door for this. the, this is going to be the case 1st. not for profit i be of service. this is the, this is the hub and it's very exciting. i had the bit of a problem with the issue with that the private patients were paying in and then
4:44 am
a chest setting, the prices that are being asked for in the private sector. and a lot of the financial gain that the hospital was making was being used to supplement other departments and often, atheist, the doctors that, oh, the medical doctors that own the fertility services or that get the financial gain out of it. and in my view, you know that, that, that's something that i'm very uncomfortable with me. and once you've started the treatment, it's impossible to get out of if you are in a conveyor belt. so if people are offering you things that might help, it's basically impossible to say no. and those often come with an extra cause. so it's difficult for patients to budget for their fertility treatment and you know, wave thing that, that these parts of the challenge that people go through a swell,
4:45 am
the financial burden and the financial implications of not knowing how much money they'll have to pay one fertility specialist in britain times to have an even better solution for freezing eggs and an alternative to the painful procedures otherwise involved. i'm professor simon facial. i come from a background in i v. f in vitro fertilization. ah, being around at the very beginning over 40 years ago. and part of the world's 1st ivy clinic, in fact, when louise brown became the world's 1st ivy at baby in 1978, it was wide spread outrage a baby conceived in a test tube or to be more precise in a petri dish. but that opposition never deterred that. then young doctor, simon vishal, he's now planning to market a treatment originally used to help female cancer patients retain their fertility,
4:46 am
which is now commercially available for any young woman we live in a world. this is how fast the world is. changing we live in a world where we can freeze eggs, but it was only about 10 years ago that you couldn't really freeze eggs. you could do it, but was unsuccessful. it wasn't, it wasn't efficient enough for you to offer it as a proper medical procedure. so there was no option to freeze x. so what people were doing years before that, they were taking a bit of ovarian tissue because we know that we're the eggs are and a woman is born with all the eggs that she'll ever have. in fact, she is born with a lot more than she needs may be about 2000000 and over time they start to deteriorate. she gets to the men of poor, she's got none left. so a woman has this pool of eggs, we call it. now when she's got a pool of eggs, it was believed that you could take that full of eggs and you could take some of the ovarian tissue out you could cut it up into tiny little pieces.
4:47 am
i freeze in years later, when she wanted to have children, you would take out the ovarian tissue, put it back into the same woman, and it would stop producing eggs. those eggs could be fertilized and she's fertile . so they have preserved her fertility. there's another problem out there, not just preserving fertility. now here's the interesting thing. if you want to restore your fertility, then you put it back near the reproductive organs. so you can try to conceive naturally. but if you just wanted to restore your hormones, you don't need to put it back near the reproductive organs. you can put anywhere with as a blood supply avenue could actually put it under the armpit, for example. and as long as it has a blood supply, it will kick start within about 3 months, and it will stop producing the hormones. one revolution has barely been
4:48 am
absorbed, and the next miracle is already being announced. the freezing of ovarian tissue, a development that would make it possible to delay the menopause. simon official is one of britain's leading fertility specialists. according to him, the waiting lists are long. probably it's worth thinking that maybe the best we can do at the moment might be to prevent the menopause coming on for maybe 20 years. even though you know, let's say it should have started when you were 50 and you'd frozen your tissue. when you were 30, you may get enough opportunity to keep your hormones going to prevent the man or pause, maybe until you're 70 m
4:49 am
. x freezing has revolutionized tech donation as well. so that's m moving eggs from one woman into another woman. and so previously you needed to have 2 women in the same room and around the same time in order to do that procedure. but now that you have frozen eggs and you can move the eggs across time and across space. so technically, a woman can donate her eggs in one country, and a woman can receive those eggs in another country. if the exit shifts in liquid nitrogen tanks and from one place to the other and but you can also have a much greater distance in time. so a woman may donate her eggs and another woman might receive those eggs and maybe 10 years later, you get a very different dynamic in terms of what a donation is. and to what extent women get to know each other and how they choose
4:50 am
and act on or for example, go on go, they'll willows as much as an over bank. we want to offer our services in countries around the world. provided it's legal. there is, if you're in arab countries, for example, it's still illegal. stop worrying me that i'm going up in the world. but humbler ali money in germany is one of the countries in europe where the situation is unclear, whip indian there, while sperm donation is permitted. there willow's egg, cell donation is prohibited him in that although that's that to change more he mean door but effect immediately if they were to amend the law to morrow my nana and make egg cell donation. legal, you said we would definitely open an oval bunk there. i would. i'm in there. yes. that'll work until you find you in 10 years will be operating in every country where exile donation is possible. then i feel the failure to convert everything went up on them. we have 50 these containers are special. im when up a they contain patented electronics,
4:51 am
which we used to track the ag sells once they've been shipped out. amazon dot club of our partners can do the same with the help of an app, is that it is this full application, no obligation which way them better protect the shipment. they can see the conditions where they like the atmospheric pressure and the humidity last gap. and this is interesting to me that the containers dps location, something lapaul, she feel gps lyla. then. then there continue is time as we explored a very large number of eggs, those of that up. and so your spreading spanish genes across the wound estimate give under any because sure or that the plan is o bushel bristow. every new born baby will play the guitar and sing flamenco. think on you data. a. got done. the flamingo, a bit. oh enough. but a mess up out of it. but seriously, we, it makes us really proud that these patients have been able to become parents with a little help from us. yes. how booky, dog and funky took on rest? are you there?
4:52 am
no. ah, many people feel a facility is not a huge pressing problem because for the last 30 years we've been talked about be worried about over population limit the number of babies people should be happy. but the reality of the new world is that populations are shrinking. women are having fewer babies and they're having babies later. so the populations of italy are shrinking. the population of the u. k. will level out very soon, even china, that country that has been so worried about over population and brought in legislation to control how many children you could have. china have realised they've got a big problem in the future. their population will be leveling before the end of
4:53 am
the century. so china is now the world center of fertility treatment. people may be surprised to hear that there are more ivy f centers in china than in any other country in the world. and this is something we all need to be aware of, that actually it makes economic sense for us to replenish the population that are gonna become taxpayers. and going to look after all of us in our old age and pay our pensions. and governments are becoming aware of mm so we're just this late governments, lucy, when it comes to encouraging women to have children. yes. i think that's a very important question because we need to think about. it says you have not only a biological or an individual issue, but it's also a social and a political issue. and you see, for example, that x reading is sometimes offered by government who try to increase the birth rate. so certain areas in japan, for example,
4:54 am
i have paid for women to freeze their eggs in the hope that they will then have more children in other areas i. b, s is and promoted as a way of increasing the birth rate. and sometimes this is coupled to a nationalist or an anti immigrant rhetoric. so we see that, for example, in hungry where victor or been and has taken to do the, to clinics under government control and is offering theat under the rubric of we don't want immigration new one procreation. so we see that fertility and i v f is politicized. in many different ways me once i was invited by the king of spain and he asked me, what do you think the biggest problem of spain? nice. and he thought i was going to say the independent movement. so the youth unemployment. and i said, these countries not having babies and you're not going to have again them, there's not going to be people in your kingdom. there's not going to be people in spain. and indeed, very say, very, the only reason there's people in spain is thanks to immigrants and massive
