      on of my school at had a faculty said the state uni Enrollment crisis was “birth rates”, no its the lack of jobs for many degrees, discouraging future students to go the schools, also the schools lack career development options.

      Because birthing is a very dangerous act and endangers the mother mortally. If you wanted to genocide someone you’d start with the children and women, with a Lack of women the men will follow suit, because of lethal competition and the aforementioned wars.

      The lack of birth control is exactly exacerbating that.

      With a lack of birth control it is not the amount of workers that rise, bit the amount of dead women and children during the birth process.

      We are beyond the profit Phase of capitalism, they fell into AI psychosis and think they dont need us anymor, since soon AI can replace our necessity.

        Birth rates fell significantly in the late 1800s, before modern birth control was an option.

          And one key factor was that kids became a financial liability.

          That did not change in 200 years.

          You would think if the owning class was interested in many workers that this problem wouldve been Adresse by now.

          But birth rates continue to fall, while child mortally rises.
