Maybe there are reasons other than economic ones that the choice to not bring another life into this capitalist hellscape is made?
It's hilarious seeing Elon Musk taking up the issue of plummeting birth rates, while simultaneously saying people who work for him who won't commit to giving their life to his companies and sleeping in the office are lazy losers.
Doesn't exist. In fact, the people in the capitalist countries life far better lifes than those poor individuals in communistic ones. And additional, countries with large social-security-system like Germany or France has the same problem, even greater ones.
Respectfully, you are delusional.
Sorry, but your are just, bold wrong. The so called "capitalist world" has by far the greates wealth and possibilities than any other area of the world. And perhaps that partly caused the drop of birthrates world wide.
The idea that bad conditions let birth rates drop is straight up false. The idea will be disproved by the fact that some of the most poor regions of the world have still high birth rates.
Maybe, the problem is far more sophisticated and all, but many things around there are wishful thinking.
