People pushing for everyone to have more kids are calling for a ponzi scheme. This is a weird choice of "experts say" to call out since this is true. All of the current tax and economics system is a ponzi and having more kids than the previous generation every time is the only way it remotely works. All of the reproductive rights fight has nothing to do with caring about or hating women. Women are just in the way of their plan to grow the population. Note that the party that claims to support reproductive rights for women is also for unlimited immigration. They just attack the same problem of population growth a different way.
