And that everyone's too damn poor. Babysitter? Not on average wages! No one wants to give up all of their time and money for kids they might not be able to provide for.

That is a failure of the US and birth rates won’t improve until that changes.
Nothing wrong with current birth rates, just the reasons for them.

Tax billionaires out if existence. Or re-organize society so we work somewhat efficiently and don't spend 90% of allblabor doing useless corpo bosswank.
