obviously mr musk is doing racism, but him & nate bronze are far from the only 'purveyors' of this.
but here's a thought: doing other things that might net workers costs money to companies. worker safety = less productivity, fixing environment = paying to not pollute.
i was thinking about this wrong, in terms of ROI: a program to pump more babies aint netting workers for 14-18 years---which as we know is farfar too ahead of time for companies to actually plan. looking at it this way, making baby workers is a similar timescale to what you'd want to do to improve the environment, and preserving current labor has an even 'faster' ROI. thus my initial confusion
but they aren't talking about trying to increase population in a systemic manner, that'd cost money. they want to get rid of current expenditures that make it possible for poor people to avoid pregnancy :scared:
in other words, no family planning, not even eugenics, no looking into medical & social reasons for declining fertility in western nations. its a return to the golden age standard of putting enough people in enough agonizing squalor and poverty that they'll multiply even if they don't really want to :doomer:
