Many of the costs of childbirth are now borne by the State (childbirth, education, food stamps, military). There is less of a sense of self-sufficiency and a greater complacency amongst those that have children.
As we enter a recession, hopefully people will realize that governments will not be able to afford this!
It is only a matter of time before more people get the obvious message: IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD KIDS, DON'T HAVE THEM!
