That’s when it becomes specifically a GOP issue, but the origins of the movement are a freakout about declining white birthrates in the 1880s. That’s when it becomes illegal in many states.

Japan's birthrate has risen for the first time in eleven years. You want higher birthrates in industrialised societies? Make it easier for people to raise healthy, well fed, well educated children without completely sacrificing their other dreams.

Births in Japan edge up 0.4% in January-June, thanks to Tokyo
This is the first increase in the first half in 11 years, with the capital’s 4.7% jump in births being the highest among all prefectures.

It’s hard to imagine that ‘developed’ countries won’t be competing for immigrants before long, with ageing population profiles and low birthrates together depriving us of the resources to maintain economies and expected lifestyles.

It will also add to the already declining birthrates which is well below replacement level anyway, if you take the one million men that fled and the one million killed or serious disabled the pool of young men to procreate just adds fuel to the demographic downward spiral.

When people frame the closures as mostly due to falling birthrates, and not revenue dysfunction or migration out of the school district, they are hiding 2/3 legs of the stool in a way that makes the current scale of closures seem inevitable.

TBH, the real threat to the UK’s benefits bill isn’t scroungers. It’s the growing number of state pensioners. I’ll be one myself in under two years, so this isn’t about denying anyone a decent pension. But with birthrates falling and net migration shrinking, who’s going to foot the bill?
Reality check: Welfare spending in the U.K. ranks in the middle of OCED countries and is one of the lowest welfare spends versus EU countries at only 10.8% of GDP.

I mean, Pratchett had rats evolving intelligence due to scavenging in the Unseen University garbage dump. Rats, cockroaches, etc would mutate faster and evolve quicker due to shorter lives and high birthrates. At the least, immunities to Repel Vermin & Remove Disease are to be expected.

Pandas have one of the lowest birthrates in the world
Because female pandas are only fertile for 24 hrs, once a year.
