And yet a lot of so-called "progressive" countries (e.g. Sweden and Germany) punish child-free workers with extremely high income tax to give handouts to parents (Barnbidrag + Kindergeld).
It's not even means-tested so they're literally taxing struggling workers to pay rich parents just for knocking out more babies.

I'm glad to inform you that besides struggling (child-free) workers there are also rich (child-free) workers. I'm sorry to inform you that besides rich parents there are also struggling parents.
