  > I don't believe it is possible during the natural development of a free country to get back to having lots of children. 50 to 100 years ago we probably didn't think it was natural to have humans willingly limit their population growth - it was viewed as completely unnatural, but it has basically happened nearly everywhere. I think you can do it via government rewards to those having larger families and starting them earlier. Housing discounts. Rebates. Tax credits. I believe Israel does this in combination with being religiously conservative, discouraging/banning most abortions, combined with a lot of government incentives, discounts -- in fact many of the people moving into the occupied territories are people starting families as the government discounts the housing there.
