I think the reason for it is that those conversations tend to focus on local community as it relates to society's ability to support its existing retirement model. This conversation is then repeated across multiple countries with varying degrees of intensity, urgency and political backing. In the old country ( Poland ) for example, in 2016 ruling party introduced a stipend for each kid[1]. The official results don't seem to support the approach though[2]. I guess my point is that it may be existential crisis for some communities more than others. Naturally, it does not help that discussion of it almost invariably brings a question of overpopulation and all the baggage that brings.
