Answer 2

It is due to a theory known as the demographic transition theory, which explains the relationship that exists between birth/death rates and economic growth.  When you have an industrialized country, say like the U.S. you find that over time as your country becomes more industrialized and the GDP rises that you will see a trend taking place in which there are both low birth rates and low death rates, and in some cases you find that the birth rates might even fall bellow that of the death rates, which leads to a shrinking population and threatens the industries within that industrialized country that rely on population growth.  In essence all of this end up placing an economic burden on the shrinking working population and could eventually overtime lead to the overall decline of the once great industrialized nation.

Answer 3

I guess because the elderly fall a lot. I think you meant feel, not fell. They think it's important because the population is growing older because people are living longer.
