Children are expensive luxuries. Why would you subsidize them when there are 7.4B people in the world, with population momentum on track to arrive at 10B near the end of the century?

Subsidized higher education, universal healthcare, and higher taxes on the wealthiest are still all fine ideas, ideas I fully support. But the world needs less people regardless of those policies. We overshot global carrying capacity, and you can't socialized economic system your way out of that.
