That's not population adjusted. But since the population grew by less than 15% over that period, rather than the >100% that would be required for the claim to be true, it should be apparent enough.
Incidentally, the only way that the aging demographic problem could be "solved" through importing young people would be to have an eternal exponentially increasing population. It should be apparent why that's not going to work out.
