Not capitalism but the unfettered capitalism without protection for workers. In a system where humans are treated as "input" for the big machine without income security, said humans will not produce more burden unto themselves.
If having a kid increases the risk of destitution, the rational human will choose to not have them (or at least not have more than 1).
