Birthrates are declining and scientists expect us to hit a peak (11 billion, I think) before the population naturally starts declining (I think to about 9 billion). We're basically seeing the ending waves of the baby boomers babies.

Naturally declining? You mean that people will stop having kids as often?

The population is out of control. It makes competition in the workforce almost impossible and theyre using up more and more resources. Bigger family? I guess we had better get an oversized V8 SUV!

But, hey! Lets start paying people $3000/kid. We should be giving stimulus checks to people who arent having kids, but this country is backwards, so

Thank you. It pisses me off that people got money for having a kid, which is an inherently irresponsible thing to do.

I would be okay with only people who have adopted or have no kids getting the credit.

Turns out the greatest means of population control is a decent standard of living. Japan and most of Europe are having a birthrate collapse, and US and Canada are getting there.
