      @@MackNcD Yes Elon is rich, but his statements and actions are more or less about forcing people to have children. He is advocating for no birth control and that people should only be intimate to procreate and sides with pro-life politicians whose policies tend to affect individuals without resources (money). That means more kids are being born but to poor families with less opportunities and resources. Even though it’s worked out for him, he really shouldn’t be taking that stance and speaking for the 99%.
      I think people would have more children if we had more of a safety net in this country. People don’t want to have kids or are not having them out of fear and insecurity, not because they are immoral or lack responsibility. Actually, the most responsible people I know waited to have kids and only had a couple when they were sure they could raise them properly and meet its needs.
      That’s why I don’t like that Elon is pushing this rhetoric. Also, I don’t think more rich people should be having kids. I think everyone who wants a child should be able to have one and should have the means. The wealthy have too much power. Elon talks and has a platform but he’s another pompous rich guy who is pretty clueless.

      During 1 of my Sociology course at Texas Christian University, my professor discussed population growth where they explained that in order for population growth to be considered "stable" for every 100 couples they need to have 210 kids between them. Now, if some couples have 1 or even no kids it balances out with couples who had 4 or 5, which is fine since another factor mentioned was how countries where couples had more kids was usually because some of those kids won't reach adulthood. Meanwhile, if a couple doesn't have kids, that doesn't typically negatively impact population growth since this is the exception, & couples having more kids can be a financial burden for them by comparison to couples who have 1 or even none.

      So what? If you're not white it's none of your business. However recent data show that birthrates of all groups in the West are plummeting the whites just started the trend a few decades earlier. American black birthrates are now about the same as white. In Europe the birth rate of north africans is now plummeting.
      Demographers are famous for ALWAYS getting predictions dead wrong. Paul Erlich's "Population Bomb" hysteria in the 1960s literally changed the world (eg China's 1 child policy) and ALL of his predictions turned out dead wrong.
      The black plague wiped out 40-50% of Europe's population in 7 years. And right after that, Europe began the complete dominance of the planet. If numbers mattered, China and India would be Switzerland and Switzerland would be Liberia.

    There's a much simpler reason the wealthy are concerned with birth rates. You touched on it earlier with "replacing the work force". It's just the key is that they don't wan't it "replaced" they want it "saturated" so buisness owners can brandish (and carry out) the threat of easily relacing a worker while constantly trying to underpay them. It's the same concept as them saying "nobody wants to work anymore", when really there's just no point in working just to still be unable to afford anything more than food.

      they know how the mitochondria works... it's not a mystery
      if they really wanted to help people become healthier... they would incentivize people to stop carbs for 3 months a year, by tracking ketones with a meter, and pay them for their progress... because it would reduce the burden on the medical system within a year, by reversing the negative effects to our insulin regulation system, which is the main systemic cause of health problems, related to several diseases

If you're not sure if you want kids, don't have them until you know you want them. Kids are expensive and hard. You have to mold kids into productive and mentally healthy members of Society. All kids grow up and become adults. You can't just have them and never pay attention to them or use them as your personal whipping post when you are aggravated at the world. We already have too many kids born to people who don't need to have them.
    Where I come from in East Tennessee we have major drug problems. I know too many drugged-up parents that have three and four and five kids running around that they cannot take care of. These kids grow up to be criminals and usually drug addicts themselves. No one should be having kids just to be having kids.

    @joyful Год назад +21

    here is how you improve birth rates: 1) ensure every parent has paid maternity/paternity leave 2) ensure all americans have access to healthcare 3) make it easier to pay down long-standing debt such as student loans and healthcare debt 4) fix the education system (the privatization of standardized tests) and in such a way that every single kid leaves highschool prepared for a trade 5) ensure daycare is available and affordable 7) ensure housing is affordable 6) and for the love of god ensure we're safe from mass shooters. without these benefits our country is just too hostile to become a parent. countries that don't have birth rate issues have most of these benefits already. falling birthrates isn't only due to birth control and choice. it's about men and women looking around and recognizing we live in a system that does not support people, families, and communities but instead benefits corporations and the super wealthy.

Also cost of living is wild and childcare is expensive. Everything going up but people's checks. So when you take women who dont want to go through single motherhood or dont want a barely there partner, plus working for peanuts, and basic living becoming more expensive you have a receipt for this "disaster" and when you sprinkle in school sh00ters and a crumbling education system what really do we have going for us other than death that screams yes bring life into the world.

Now, if some couples have 1 or even no kids it balances out with couples who had 4 or 5, which is fine since another factor mentioned was how countries where couples had more kids was usually because some of those kids won't reach adulthood. Meanwhile, if a couple doesn't have kids, that doesn't typically negatively impact population growth since this is the exception, & couples having more kids can be a financial burden for them by comparison to couples who have 1 or even none.

      I think women have been misled into thinking they can have a 10-year career before starting a family. The truth is they are beyond the halfway point in their fertility lifespan only four years after college (age 26). How many women know this? Virtually none! At age 35 the average woman has a 3% chance of getting pregnant each month -down from 25% at age 20... So if a woman starts trying at age 35 to have a kid they will have their first child at age 38.5!! One child family because at 38.5 fertility has dropped to a 1% chance of getting pregnant every month!

I think a lot of younger women and younger men are questions what is the point in having children? When young ppl can’t afford today’s rents for housing and are going home to live with parents? Ppl with jobs are living in their cars.
    Ppl of all races are waking up to see who benefits by cranking out more ppl to be miserable and have little to look forward too.

Also: music, arts, athletics and alternative teaching methods in our schools to encourage different interests for each child. Adequate supplies for schools to include technology to chess sets and ereaders for our kids! Also, free tutoring because already exhausted parents should not be expected to spend hours every night helping their kids with homework.
