7:30 Such monetary incentives are never gonna work. Taking a child is very costly and very risky. Raising a child is as rewarding as its stressful though. But these days its very hard to not become anxious about what future has for your offspring, specially if you're a mid income. It takes a village to raise a child. If you want people to take more children, you need to bring that village back. Only good family bonding can raise the population, not some paltry alms given by the govt.

As a biologist, if I see any other populaiton going through this stage, I'll say that population is at its dying stage. Biologically speaking, human population is pretty close to its death stage. Only some innovation, big enogh to rival the invention of agriculture can rescue us.

@bunyu6237 Not devastation, just depletion. Depletion of resource. As population grows, more and more people consumes the resuource leading to depletion. As a result there comes a time when - first there's just not enough for everyone, then there's not enough for anyone. You might say - this isn't happening for humans. But our "wealth and assest" ultimately comes from the environment. And if we take resource depletion in the environment, it becomes clear that we humans too are facing resource depletion on a global scale.
