Give me text. To the content of the piece, sub-replacement fertility is an Outside Context Problem. Governments cannot understand it[1] or in many cases even see it, so they'll never be able to begin to solve it. 1. They notice a "labour shortage", which they propose to solve with immigration. That turns out to be life-threatening for a culture, while not addressing sub-replacement fertility at all. That continues as before. Or a "baby shortage", to which they respond with payments and subsidies, as if low fertility is purely a problem of not enough money or services (such as daycare). Yeah, no. As I said, an outside context problem.
