Maybe Congress should do something about the environment they enabled, in which nobody can afford to raise children and many feel it's unethical to have one? Just spitballing here.
I mean its not just cost, people have options now and realize the point of life doesn't just have to be about having kids. There is a reason smart people have fewer children lol
Those people have always existed. I'm just talking about how changing conditions are causing people who might otherwise have children to prioritize survival or ethics instead. Authoritarians are always harping on about falling birthrates in the countries they've ruined, blaming anyone other than themselves for the decline.
