But they want to increase birth rates?

What a pack of fucking idiots.

[–] TwinTitans@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

That was exactly my thought. Guess they’re to busy stoking fear about illegal immigrants rather than fix real problems.

[–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 5 points 2 months ago

Illegal immigrants from countries with more guaranteed paid maternity leave than the US has!

(Yes this is an extremely 1-dimensional lens to look at these extremely complex socioeconomic and geopolitical issues through. What's not complex is that child birth is a biological process not compatible with the factory oriented 8 hours a day/5 days a week schedule that we're now stuck on)

Even if they were competent enough to understand what they need to do to increase the birth rate, their actual answer would be "FEMALES shouldn't have jobs to begin with".
