Places that provide childcare seem to have fewer children. There is a reasonable mechanism of action: without that childcare, families with children quickly give up on having two incomes, and thus the extra children are less of a burden. Once you entirely give up on a career, the problem of career impact for an additional child is gone.
It's not as expensive as you think. I'm no 1%er, yet I have a dozen kids. Dual enrollment provides a nearly-free AA degree, knocking 2 years of a BS degree and eliminating all the general education requirements. With a spacing of 2 years from kid to kid, it's usually only one kid in college at a time. That assumes no scholarships.
