Improving the Birth Rate
Posted on 4/24/25 at 8:56 am

Saw an interesting video from Akkad on YT( LINK) on Trump wanting a baby boom.
As a single person with no kids, I tend to still agree that families(of married couples) should get major tax benefits based on the # of kids they have. Id be open to even having a zero % tax rate on families with 5+ kids.
Ultimately, I think we should facilitate an economic environment that supports women staying at home with young children as well.
What are yall's ideas?

It raises many questions
One problem to be addressed is the amount of single mothers with multiple kids living on food stamps and welfare and free medical
If you get my drift...

How do you suggest we get men to step up and raise their children?

Get the government to stop incentivizing single mothers so hopefully more keep their legs closed.
Bring religion back to our society so hopefully some kind of moral benefit is provided.
Educate people that out of wedlock parenthood will not benefit you near as much when the government benefits are slashed, especially.

It would take a lot to convince people to procreate that have been brainwashed since birth to favor education and careers over starting a family.
I'm talking a national world-view shift of values.
Having more than a kid or two would mean people get started on family before their 30s... and it would mean making it easier and more respected to have stay at home mothers, because quality daycare isn't cheap. Housing stock, affordability, car prices, daycare, student loan debt... all of this is inhibiting young families.

Nobody talks about it in the MSM but our young men’s testosterone levels have been plummeting.
Find ways to bring that back up and more sex happens.
Young men today are very reclusive and intimidated to approach women. Raise the test levels and that might happen.

Easiest solution is picking better men to have sex with

Your move, ladies

To defend these young men, young women have become quite awkward as well.
Many been taught if a man approaches them they will 90% be a rape victim.
Many are very shy and reclusive if spoken to.

I agree with you here, also the rise of toxic feminism has made men swear women off as it’s not worth it.
Not an easy solution, but biologically raising testosterone would assist.
Socially… tbd

Discourage women from sleeping with men who are incapable of raising kids would be a start

I'm 30 and a lot of guys my age were in college during peak #MeToo. It was beat into our brains that you could have fully consensual sex and still have your life ruined by some a-hole. Even fully acquitted, your reputation gets smeared. And if you have your shite together, a la being ready for marriage/kids, it's just not worth the risk of losing it all for some casual sex.
I think that the sentiment is dying off slowly, but what would help imo is stiffer and more regularly enforced penalties for false accusations.

incentivize married couples having children.
stop or drastically decrease incentivizing non-married couples from have children.
modernize marriage laws for men.
and as a society stop pretending that every woman needs to go out and be a boss babe w/ a career.
ohh and a fun one would be to offer free abortions if you’re also willing to be sterilized. (if the abortion wasn’t because of medical reasons, rape, or incest)

Agreed, but a long journey starts with a few steps

Block such men from bring fathers in the first place. No sex on first, second, or third dates. Only have sex with men who are interested in long term relationships, monogamy, being present fathers.
On the male side of things, stop demeaning and trying to deplatform conservatives who advocate for such behavior. Promote it yourself. When was the last time you heard a Hollywood A-lister call our hookup culture and premarital sex? Our society as a whole has a very unhealthy and destructive view of sex. Progressives have made too much headway in that department and look at the state of families today...

I think it should be a lot more expensive to have children, not giving them money to have children. Why do we need the birth rate to increase? Why should people who cannot afford babies, have babies?
I think this is going to create a bigger problem.

Agreed. Men who don't accept responsibility for their children are scum. On the other hand, females should have more self respect or at least be responsible.

Promote life.
- Start campaigns that promote having kids and the joys of.
- Promote pregnancy and the fetus as our future.
Make it easier to have kids
- We spent how much on abortions and BS? Do the opposite. Make it affordable. Can do that through several methods.. tax cuts being one.
- Promote at home baby sitting. You can do that by issuing licenses to stay at home moms who watch 3 to 6 kids. This lowers costs. In turn, it will force the lowering of prices at day cares.
- Look at front loading their lives (baby's). They will pay into Social Security..etc. Give them "X" amount up front @ birth. Nobody has access to that money. It is invested. The now grown kid can take that money to be applied to trade schools or colleges. It is deducted from their retirement. That can be done by absorbing a small percentage each year from their over all money paid in.
