@joemerino3243 you're almost there. Female prosperity is actually correlated with lower birth rates. Male prosperity is correlated with higher birth rates. It's not just "improve market conditions" because as soon as women have their own money, can take care of themselves or at least have hubby government they stay single. The baby boom was a marriage boom and marriages boomed because men's relative economic status boomed. Young women want a piece of that status so they married those men.

24:00 dating for most young men is like not actively applying for jobs because virtually all jobs are all paying $7.25/hr for high risk backbreaking work. Yeah you probably should get a job but is it even worth risking your life and energy and time for $58 a day?

profit exists as a signal customers are receiving value from your product. They are willingly trading for your product which they see as more valuable than their own money. No profit = no value signal = valueless products.

Good for you. One of the biggest traits in the modern world for life success is extroversion. It's a learned skill to some degree but like many other traits it's also very much genetic unfortunately.

@joemerino3243 I'd argue it's both. On one hand our money is fake and rigged, siphoning wealth from the have nots to the haves via debasement. COL is a huge downward pressure on fertility. In Syria it doesn't cost $10 for bread and $3000 for rent. On the other hand you have state programs that violently confiscate men's labor to redistribute to women and you have initiatives that advantage women economically over men. Men naturally outperform women but the state and its de facto cathedral branches (university, corporate america, MSM, etc...) are at every corner kneecapping men so women can use as stilts to feel equal. But women don't like equal, they only like taller men, so they stay single and/or are shared amongst the few men still left taller. Women wanted equality and used the violence of the state to achieve it but are disgusted by their equals.

@joemerino3243 It's both. The have nots are being siphoned from the haves via currency debasement. purchasing power and COL affect birth rates significantly. In Syria it doesn't cost $10 for a loaf of bread or $3000/mo for rent. While at the same time the state forcefully confiscates the labor of men to give to women and advantages women over men via regulations, initiatives quotas, etc.... Men naturally outperform women economically but the state at every corner kneecaps men and gives those knees to women to stand on like stilts. Women fought for equality but now they are the same height they are no longer attracted to those men. They'd rather stay single.
