Well, I'll tell you what it is.
It is corporate America saying, if these women have babies, they'll leave the workforce and there'll be fewer people.
We'll have to pay people more money because there are fewer workers in the workforce because if these women have babies, they'll become moms.
And then they'll maybe have another one.
They'll have less time to be efficient and effective.
And it's so...
depressing.
It's so sad.
Well, there's this interesting thing where you look at communist China, right?
In the 1950s, they institute the one-child policy and a bunch of different programs that incentivize sterilization.
Their birth rate in 1960, I think, was 4.45 per woman.
By 1997, they got it down to 1.53 after coercive and harsh, tyrannical policies that really hurt and killed a lot of people.
When the Brits gave up control of Hong Kong in 1987, the same year, their fertility rate under the loving, gazing eyes of the Western world, Hong Kong's birth rate was at 1.13%.
With all the prosperity, right?
Even lower, right.
And over that time, we have increased efficiency by 90% across our industries.
We're almost double as effective and efficient as we were back in 1960.
but more of our money goes towards the existential stuff.
It was 50% of your income in the 1960s went to your mortgage, your car, your insurance, all the things you need to live.
Today it's 80%.
