that doesnt have anything to do with it

Post scarcity

That way

Orson is right in a way

In a way, yes

@Orson Krennic DO you support contraception?

Most people dont raise families for economic reasons

if you give families more money sure

@ChillyWilly like in general?

Sure

Direct subsidies to families is a dumb idea

We need less taxation

Based

It's expensive to have a family nowadays

That could also work @Orson Krennic

Either social support or less taxation to families

Or more exemptions for families

Both would solve or alleviate this problem

*I'd say remove income tax altogether*

^

Implement the negative income tax Friedman proposed

And do away with our welfare programs so American families keep more of their money

@Asdrubal nonono different way

But this will raise even more problems

No income tax if you have 4 or more children

This gives an incentive

Yeah, exemptions

Tariffs will replace income and property tax

That will also work, maksim

A lot of ways could increase birth rate

It worked like that forever before big business pushed for free trade

@Wendy We also need to increase wages

@Maksim Currently 1.80, and a decrease in population isn’t inherently bad.

Actually we don't

Wages have stagnated for the past few decades

@DrRisen shut the fuck up raisin

We need to get rid of minimum wage

Income tax during the civil war doesnt count because Abraham Lincoln needed to pay for the killing of Americans

@Orson Krennic How would wages increase

Besides income tax, federal minimum wage is the worst economic policy of the 20tj century

Lower numbers means less unemployment and more money to go around.
