"Man, I now have to pay taxes on birth control things? Let me save money by not using any and just have some babies instead, which are not expensive at all." 🙄

Tổng thống Nga Vladimir Putin đề xuất cách tiếp cận mới nhằm tăng tỷ lệ sinh, bao gồm việc khuyến khích vai trò làm cha tích cực hơn và mở rộng hỗ trợ miễn thuế cho các gia đình khi sinh con. Ông nhấn mạnh cần thay đổi nhận thức xã hội và tăng hỗ trợ kinh tế để thúc đẩy sinh đẻ trong bối cảnh dân số Nga đang đối mặt với nguy cơ suy giảm.

Two births and 27 deaths in one village: Poland's tumbling birthrate.

With an average of 1.03 children per woman, Poland has the lowest fertility rate in Europe. Increasing family allowances has not changed that.

The exhaustion of the population following the collapse of the 1990s, and then two decades of economic boom, is one of the explanations.,

Poland’s #birthrate is in freefall. The cause? A #loneliness epidemic that state cash can’t solve | Anna Gromada https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/oct/23/polands-birth-rate-is-in-freefall-the-cause-a-loneliness-epidemic-that-state-cash-cant-solve

Population decline causes problems, especially under the "a growing economy is a healthy economy" mantra, when
"...basic assumptions about capitalism and economic growth evolved when nearly every country was experiencing rapid population increases."

But the Earth has limits -we have to find a new paradigm where a stable economy is a healthy economy...

Russia’s population is shrinking and aging, prompting strict govt policies—cash incentives for families, abortion restrictions, and "traditional values" campaigns. But war, economic woes, and emigration keep birth rates low. Critics warn of long-term damage. 🇷🇺 #Russia #DemographicCrisis #Putin #BirthRate #AbortionBan #WarImpact #PopulationDecline

I find all the hand wringing about Western population growth to be interesting.

I'm the father of one from a family of three (I'd have liked two, but c'est la vie). I can see how there's probably a stronger pull towards replication of what you had/know rather than something different, but at the same time, it's a pretty big economic commitment to have a kid...

I can see how a multi-generational singleton trend in the current economy is likely to result in some organic degrowth of the population, and personally, I think that's okay (modulo the inescapable economic consequences of it). The other alternatives I can think of are: war, pandemic, or unsustainable growth.
