Top down government interventions to raise birth rates and population work pretty well in countries where the government provides vital services like healthcare, education at lowest cost and also social safety nets.
- RestlessMind 4y agoWas that sarcasm? Because the reality is exactly opposite to what you say when you look at TFRs of societies having the best welfare - Finland (1.37), Norway (1.48), Germany (1.53), Switzerland (1.46). Even Sweden and Denmark are around (1.66), the same as the US (1.64).
