Given the issues we can attribute (at least in part) to overpopulation, why would an at-or-above replacement rate be intrinsically more stable?

- screye 8y agoBeing below replacement rate completely destroys the way our taxation and welfare systems are built. Both rely on having more people contributing taxes than there are leeching off of them. In the 1 child policy, 1 working person is suddenly responsible for the welfare of 2 retirees. Welfare systems would collapse, unless it was rethought from ground up.
