Yep, the cost of living crisis is exposing the financial strain people are under. The same republicans who are pro-abortion are also anti-education, don't want workers paid a living wage, don't want maternity leave or child care support and a bunch of other things that would be inducive to raising a child.Correct. It is about control. If they really cared about minimizing abortion, there would be greater access to contraceptives and sex education.
Birth rates are going down because the younger generation knows how expensive it is to have a child. We will have issues in a generation as people start retiring and there’s no one coming up behind them to fill the workforce.
Conservatives endlessly complain about the death of the nuclear family yet they have contributed immensely by continually supporting policies that make it harder for families.
The birth rate in many countries isn't going down due to some liberal lifestyle. The birth rate is going down because having children has becoming insanely expensive and having a large family if you aren't wealthy is a one way ticket to poverty for most would be parents.
