re: #42 Hecuba’s daughter

Wasn’t there a huge drop in birth rate during the Depression? It would seem that the decline is due to the same reasons: financial and job insecurity among a huge percentage of the population that is in the appropriate age range.

AND THAT IS A RATIONAL DECISION!

The powers that be, the business and political leaders HAVE INCENTIVIZED PEOPLE NOT TO HAVE CHILDREN. It makes no economic or social sense to have them.

Wanna change that? Give people incentives to have children. Reward them, don’t penalize them.
