Overpopulation: the big lie

Walt said:
In primitive societies, children are extra farm workers, and add resources to the family. In more advanced societies, children are students and take resources from the family. The difference is part of the reason the number of children per family goes down as societies advance.

Another reason is that societies with poor healthcare need to have many children in order for a few of them to make it to adulthood. And in societies without pensions, or ways to save for retirement, children are the way to support parents in their old age.

Maybe framing Children as a liability is a Nazi meme.

Destroying families is an attack on humanity.

The Nazis supported large families. They gave prizes to mothers who could have the most German babies.

I support investing more into children, and making greater adults.
 
Walt's got the cart before the horse.

The Nazi elites consider discouraging large families to be the mark of "advanced societies".

Yeah, advanced in stupidness.

Large families For nazis. Not for lesser than humans.

You promote high costs and overblown snob standards to discourage reproduction of the poor.

Is access to abortion crucial in ending the cycle of poverty?

Nowhere near as crucial as access to birth control, banning child brides, access to education and jobs for women, etc. People's lives can be vastly improved, with or without abortion being available.

Yes.

It fits that all anti-American cocksuckers would hate the FBI.

Joe Biden’s American Families Plan includes $9 billion to address the nation‘s teacher “shortage.” It’s a problem he says he wants to fix. Here are the necessary steps to solve the problem.


Understand the problem correctly. There is no teacher shortage. What we have is an erosion of every feature that would make teaching attractive. If I can’t buy a Porsche for $1.98, that does not mean there’s an automobile shortage. Also, look at actual data. There’s a widespread idea that the pandemic has boosted retirement rates; there’s no evidence that’s true (though it certainly hasn’t helped).

Pay more. Here’s one of the great mysteries of education; people who otherwise fully grasp the laws of supply and demand are somehow certain these laws do not apply to teachers. Bring up teacher pay and you will hear complaints about pay scales, paying for seniority, merit pay plans, but they are all fancy versions of one complaint--”I don’t think I should have to pay that much to hire teachers.” It doesn’t matter. I don’t think I should pay more than $2.00/gallon for gas, but my desire, even if based on great arguments, does not move the marketplace. Sometimes the argument about pay will land on “Well, if they don’t like it, they can go work somewhere else.” Well, yes. And they have.
