the world is overpopulated and everyone who wants to have children should require a license to do so (and it should cost a lot - like, a mid-tier job's annual salary).
That would create a generational time bomb. What happens when the now sizeably reduced younger generation has to care for a hoard of old people and pay their pensions?
Ro-butts! And govt procured provisions purchased in bulk if money is tight.
In the 1920s, many Americans who were put to work could not be paid because 'the govt had no money' but from remembrances of those who lived, they never ate better. I'm talking multiple huge fried pork chops per person, etc, but no spending money. It should cost even less to feed seniors, though I'd worry about the diet becoming too inflammatory.
