 The EU needs this more than anyone.

Those birth rates aren’t going to improve themselves! Nothing outside of government centrally planning pregnancies and revenue raising with loicenses will solve this. https://i.nostr.build/ZzICUtalC6nTj3zk.jpg

 And that's importing tens of millions of third world individuals of reproductive age. Imagine the real numbers for the native population.

 Yeah we don’t talk about that..

We have the same problem in Australia. I only know one Aussie who has had a kid in the past year, the few others who have were foreigners

 Imagine importing almost exclusively males and thinking the birth rates would go up. Also imagine thinking this disbalance wouldn't lead to violence and rape rates mooning.

 These numbers are hopeless. Anything below 2 is going straight up lower the next years. Just math. Rates are compounding. Low fertility leads to even lower in the future. 

But there is hope!
Remember those fields in Matrix where humans were grown? This would work. I wonder if Ursula discussed that with WEF.

 Queen Ursula already has a proof of concept growing humans in fields in her backyard.
