  • I find it funny to watch these countries having issues with people not wanting to have babies.

    There are core reasons behind this, one large one being “raising a child is expensive and all the world’s money is being sucked up by billionaires, there is nothing left for children”. Another one (for certain countries like Japan and South Korea) is the “work 80 hours a week and never see that family you’re supposed to raise”

    And governments go like “sooooo, if we cover child birth, you’re good, right? What? Still nothing? We tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas, how oh how can we solve this?”

    Fuck the rich, end the rich. That will get births back to a healthy 2.1

    I’m of the opinion that that doesn’t go far enough

    We need to put hard limits on personal wealth (and the wealth of companies too). After 10 million networth in wealth, all your income should go to taxes 100% until you’re below that limit… something similar should exist for companies

    Same goes for power and fame. I don’t want or need a president, or a CEO that directs billions of dollars

    Keep everything small, keep everyone small. Mega projects can still be done by multiple companies together, for example

    End the rich!
