Pretty sure the birth rate is plummeting. So continue doing nothing i guess.

Fucking paying money to raise a wage slave renter for the shitty bosses and landlords of the world.

Pretty sure the birth rate is plummeting

The birthrate in industrialized nations has slipped from slightly above replacement to slightly below replacement over the course of several decades. World population is still growing and estimated to top off at around 10 billion people in the 2080s

Of course, the plutocracy has been preparing for this with the rapid development of their human labor panacea - AI. This massive rush to Create God, as described by the lunatics at Microsoft, Tesla, Amazon, and Google, is much more about finding a low-cost industrially scalable replacement for live humans.

Meanwhile, we're gearing up development of sophisticated methodologies for mass murder and demoing them from Central Africa to Southeast Asia.

The only catch is that much of the modern-day Unaligned States haven't taken it laying down. One reason we're seeing Iranian ballistic missiles focusing their fire on Amazon Data Centers across the Middle East. We're hitting the nexus between western reliance on advanced artificial intelligence in lieu of human labor and their geopolitical rivals seeing these institutions as a threat to the lives and livelihoods of human populations.

You might also want to take a hard look at all those Flock cameras going up across the United States. And how they are increasingly integrated into the national police organizations busy black bagging people and shoving them in concentration camps.
