> if not having children is the default, then population will decrease and eventually die out, or the burden of keeping the population stable rests on those few who need to have lots of children.
oh, no.
I want the population to decrease.
Please do not have more children to "offset" me not having any children.
That defeats the point.
I want fewer people to have children.
I also want the people who have children to have fewer children.
In fact, I am against this whole idea of "reproductive rights".
Nobody should have a right to have as many children as they want.
There should be a cap in the number of biological children a human can have.
If you want to see what that policy leads to, look no further than China's one child policy and the horrors that came with enforcing it and what is now occuring to their economy.
If you're concerned about population control, you'll see that it naturally goes down with industrialization like what is occuring all over Europe right now. There's no need to move to a forced system that will lead to human rights abuses.
