The rate of voluntary sterilization among young women jumped abruptly after Dobbs, and there’s no reason to believe it will drop off

It’s a bigger loss for them if those problems were fixed because smart/intelligent people are harder to control. Hence the gutting of any sort of education. They want old style slavery in a modern world.

    Okay that's true I admit, I'm well educated, and I want others to be too. Just like Idiocracy told us though people who don't see how bad it is won't be bothered and will have children anyway. 200 bucks ho boy let's get busy!

    I'm kinda counting on the following outcome:

    Stupid people who adhere to Trump-like mindset including "we need higher birthrate" are going to have more children, but then are gonna be too poor to move, so they're stuck in the countryside in bumfuck nowhere and then poverty proliferates there, since they can't actually take care of their children. This leads to a localized concentration of poverty.

    It's a localized, self-inflicted, self-deserved punishment. I think it's fair.
