These replies are all hilarious. It's a foregone conclusion in all of your minds that we need to continue scaling up our population to drive our economy.

Humans don't deserve to destroy the earth just so they can keep their ego projects going.

The argument no one has brought up yet: why should society have to pay up even more for breeders' personal choices?

People without kids have to pay higher taxes (via rebates for parents), utilize less resources (public schools), effectively subsidizing people who want to have kids.

I'm all for protecting what's best for children, but I am not happy with people having children they cannot adequately support, causing other people to need to pay for them.

In California, people fitting certain economic criteria are now being issued $1000 checks for inflation relief. This is beyond ludicrous.

We have printed so much money, the only solution is to... print more?

It's almost like it is all a sneaky backdoor to letting the government redistribute wealth without real oversight...
