i.e. what the progressives have been saying for ages

slows down birthrates

won't make a difference

the problem is our governments are inclined to keep our populations rising no matter what, and import as many people as they need to make this happen

seems so :\

truly they are traitors

is that not the rightful name for one who opens the gates for the enemy waiting outside the city walls?

I wouldn't call them enemies, that's a bit too far, but I would say that they are betraying their populace for giving foreigners priority over locals.

They should've just incentivized people to breed more.

Sudden increases on population (esp workforce) overloads social services and fucks with the labor market.

kek

Raising kids is very expensive nowadays, life expectancy is increasing, child death rates are decreasing as well as women having more serious careers is why birthrates are decreasing

At least in the west

So if you want to incentivise people to have kids you need to give them financial support and fiscal relief

Yes.

Tell that to the blacks

raising kids is expensive if you're like the masses and just buys all your babies shit new

people don't know what frugality is nowdays

Fiscal relief and support is how you'd do it.

If you can't afford kids don't have kids

It's not like it's much better with illegals either way.

By the nature of their condition they don't pay taxes other than in purchases (and even then it depends)

the reason raising babies wasn't expensive back in the day was that people didn't have money to waste smh

and they use up local services funded with actual taxpayer money.

@Amir poor people arent poor because they have many kids, they have many kids because they are poor

The more kids they have the more chances the money will come to the family onve they start working

Yah but In a industrial setting or in modern America where it’s not as agricultural dependent I feel more children for the poor becomes a large expense for them until they become older (if they become productive to begin with)

Yeah it's the 21st century more uneducated kids =/= more income

Unless by income you mean fucking welfare...

@Deleted User "stop being poor"

Yeah in most western countries it really is that easy, just takes some effort and the will to reject government handouts

tbh, why reject any money you can take from the government

that's my policy, they're already taking too much from me

Or you can be the government's bitch forever

anyone who can work but doesn't is an awful person

So there's 2 people, both came to Canada 30 years ago, 1 of em hasn't worked a day in his life and the other has worked almost all those 30 years as a taxi/ambulance driver. The guy that worked his ass off recently got his retirement and it's barely anymore than the fucker that just took the welfare paycheck from day 1.

@PartlyAwesome stay at home moms?
