okay why can shawneequa have 12 kids with 15 baby daddies(5 of which are in prison for murder, 6 for smaller crimes the rest for not paying child support), but james can't have one. my grandpa had to move around a lot because postwar poland, eventually landed back in his home village. a small 2 room house with straw roof and without floor. had 5 kids. eventually did build something more proper, sure, but that's how it all started. and this happens in communist country which didn't let you engage in any kind of financial shenaningas(if you were dumb retard who thought he's gonna change the world by buying bitcoin in 2012 you're set for life by now and you're still a dumb retard), a lot of property, especially outside of cities actually depreciated in value etc. etc. people don't have kids because they don't want them and can avoid having them very easily. there's an obvious solution to this - birth draft. at the age of 30 a childless woman gets drafted, checked for health and forced to give birth to 2 kids, the fathers are drafted from similar pool. the state takes the kids and gives them austere, barracks like childhood with the intention of making most of them perform low-wage jobs in the future. realistically this scheme alone results in 1.8 tfr, so as long as the "natural" birth rate manages to hold on to the heights of tfr in seoul(0.49) you're safely above the replacement level. you will hate this take but this is the only way it's going to be solved.
