    I refuse to believe our ruling class, which chases profits like a peewee soccer team chases the ball, has the foresight to be adjusting population levels 18 years in advance. The economic motive here, if any, is to use forced childcare as a mechanism to drive consumer spending and debt.

      For the most part, yeah but they don't need much foresight or to plan things perfectly 18 years in advance

      They just need to paint in broad brush strokes and put some of their near infinite money behind it and they can change society for the worst but in ways that ultimately benefit themselves
