That alright. You can suffer the consequences when you reach old age and realize how meaningless of a life you’ve lived. You want all the nice cars, transit, beautiful cities, well maintained public parks etc.? Then you have to have children. Also, asking women for this or that makes you as a man look really awful. More males need to re-learn old school virtues and morals in order to fully mature.

The tribe is not interested in doing that.

@toxicmale2264 Indeed so... It will get from bad to awful before any of these feminists realize how terribly mistaken they are. The times we're living through, I like to coin it as "progressive decline."

@toxicmale2264 Hey, if you believe that children are terrible, that is okay with me. Just keep in mind that when old people outnumber young people 10 to 1, there won't be anyone to maintain infrastructure, health care facilities, public transit, nice cars etc.

@toxicmale2264 Okay then, good for you. Many people who don't want to raise enough children should not expect high quality infrastructure, reliable public services, nice cars, etc. You want all those things above, then you need to raise the next generation of people.

@toxicmale2264 Throwing some money around won't solve the root cause of the issues. I was addressing the decline in skilled labor, quality standards etc. that is caused by many people who either 1) don't want children in sufficient numbers or 2) do not raise their children properly.

@evilds3261 "Cheap labor" will be replaced by automation. The work that's left will be for highly skilled craftsmen's... at least what's left of the general population.
2
@evilds3261 America no longer has the skillsets and industrial capacity to mass produce automation. Even if we were to import all the automation from China, there simply is no longer the sufficient population needed for consuming fast foods, cheap shoes, bottled drinks etc. However, I do believe that at a local level, there will be some automation done by skilled craftsman rather than technicians.

@sloeberdoet A lot of people in America work at a full time job just for basic benefits, while also doing side hustles, a second job, and a third cash job (on weekends) for extra income.

@Folomus Too many people have "conventional ideals" that are outdated. There is always another alternative pathway forward. The greatest cities were once pop up wood shacks built by lumberjacks and it is God who has blessed you with children.

@toxicmale2264 I'm fully aware of how complex society works and the capabilities for communities to re-structure themselves to population changes. My point above is that too many people expect this or that high quality goods/services without actually "being able to pay for it."

@evilds3261 Decades ago, we already started predicting the collapse of our heavy industrial economy. In the present day and future, the people who will be prospering will be those who have adapted a mix of traditional craftsmanship and smaller scale industrial workmanship. Immigration itself will not fix anything in America. Despite an open immigration policy that America adopted after 1965, technical-creative skills continue to rapidly decline.

@evilds3261 We don't even have the skilled labor to build and maintain such robots on a massive scale. We rely a lot upon other countries (i.e.: China) for many basic components. The American Empire is finished and there is nothing we can do to save a crumbling empire. America will return back to local statesmanship.

 @cfroi08 Unfortunately for you, NS Germany had the right approach, but was militarily destroyed by the Western Allies.

Since the 1970s, the USA has seen a 1-2 children per family thanks to higher taxes, child incentives/breaks being removed, women being taught Academics instead of formal parenting, and men turning into spineless feminists. Why do you think we had such crazy things going on the 1980s, 90s, 2000s etc. all the way to the present day?! Heroin on American university to campuses, children coming out of public schools so dumb, and many youngsters doing a worthless/costly degree at university! The mother who would look after their children are now exhausted after they come home from a long day of work, so they let their child do whatever they want! Here in America, many old values, old towns, and morals are dying out because the older generation of men and women have failed to pass them on to younger people. We’ve become very short sighted, focusing on short term gains instead of long term incremental development. All those feminists out there who want to insult me, I don’t care because Life has its own way of giving you idiots a “kick in the pants” when infrastructure cannot be maintained, cities crumble, and there aren’t enough high IQ/EQ people to fulfill all these job roles.
