No, the world is overpopulated. White, brown, or blue

Declining birth rates are a problem all over the globe. This is the most extreme measure to combat that. I wonder if this will work to change course.

Your wife could stay home with the kiddos.

Mine quit after #2. She was a teacher and drug up.

Lots of family's can't afford their homes and lifestyles on a single income.

Hungarian women are collectively the most beautiful women I have seen anywhere.

And here my wife and I have the financial means and want a child but two years of trying and nada. And we are both fine health wise and fertile


shite just won’t fricking happen

Incentivizing more women to leave their spouse is supposed to boost birth rates? Bold strategy

I care so much about a society and populace that forces me to pay women to leave scott free whenever they feel like it and make me suffer.

Men created society, only men can sustain it. It will continue to decline until they stop being a constant loser when it comes to reproduction. Women have nothing to lose. They can sit on their arse and be taken care of by the state. Men have everything to lose, including everything they have worked for, and will be thrown in jail and called scum the second they decide to sit on their arse.

Society is reaping what it has sewn. Eventually the problem will sort itself out.

So the numerical number is not the issue. We agree. It is the actions of that numerical value

I understand. Believe me.

Didn't say it'd be easy.

Were not loaded and do without a lot of things.

It's in reach for more people than you think. There are a lot of hard choices we make. Being able to be home with the kids is worth.

I'm too lazy to do the research but my WAG is the number people of childbearing years who pay enough in taxes for that plan to be attractive is pretty small.

Maybe you are right.

I looked it up, and there are 41% of US households with more than $100,000 in income. About 25% are more than $150,000. So I’ll go with 33% for whom this would be effective. The thing is, it’s the 33% we want to have more children.

There are 131 million households, so this would cause about 44 million households to have an incentive for more children. If a third of them act on this, and that third has about 1.2 more children, that gives us 17.6 million more children over about 70 years. That’s a quarter of a million per year. We currently are at about 3.6 million per year, so this bumps us up 7%. We go from 1.7 to 1.8 live births per woman.

So your point looks valid. Maybe we add a cash incentive, but we impose a limit such that the ratio of your benefit cannot exceed a certain percentage of your income. We want to avoid welfare queens funding a lifestyle this way.
