Goldilocks, I was kidding about using the military. But kids are a big expense, and if the parents can’t afford to HAVE kids, they should do the un-created kids a favor and use birth control.

If the parents have a farm and are self sufficient, they would NEED kids to help run the farm, rather than hiring outsiders. And the kids could gradually take over the business, and support the parents as Auandag suggested.

In China they were restricted to one child. These days with them being the manufacturing vendor of the world, some couples with money are probably allowed to have more than one clone.

Auandag, I assume you are very young and don’t remember how great the 1950s and 1960s were. Even half way into the ’70s things were still ok, but you could see the cracks popping up.

We did NOT have massive numbers of desperate refugees hungry for work. Willing to compete against each other, work harder and cheaper. Cutthroat type situation.

The western nations had their act together. (less kids) That’s why we had prosperity. Unfortunately because of satellite TV, the rest of the third world watching “Archie Bunker” saw how well off Americans were and wanted the same thing.

Bottom line? Third world poor nations were merged with wealthy western nations. Like if you mix clear water with muddy water what do you get? Water that’s less muddy.

The cat that swallowed the canary is big multi national business. They helped killing small business and self employed. In the USA we had millions of self employed.

I remember people that deliverd eggs, diapers, ice, bread, cakes, the milk man etc etc. Cabinate makers, small farmers etc. All had high living standards when we were insulated from the rest of the world.

If third world nations want high living standards, they should have less kids, avoid imports, and not let foreign global businesses take away their natural recourses for peanuts. With independence for each and every country, all would be better off.

The opposite of consolidation. You want duplication of production. NOT global efficiency, which is, one country making all THESE widgets, and the other country making all THOSE widgets, makes sense only if competing against another planet.
