Another coinkidink.

Ah, here is step one. The "Mutter der Nation" medal for women having 5+ children.

Next stop: Lebensborn projects where women are forced to get impregnated by real american patriots (tm)

Trump is the sum of the reasons I won't procreate and can shove every single medal up his rectum to form Trump piñata. However, we can then string him up and take turns beating Trump-yata with a bat until we all get a medal, and the world will be on its way to healing.

The truth is that Trump is a poster child for why abortion should not only be legal, but encouraged.

ok so this is inconsistent

i read two fucking weeks ago that economists around the world are waking up to the idea that people should have fewer children because otherwise the rich and corporations might have to pay taxes to provide income to the people that the wages don't. if there's fewer people, they don't need to pay people subsidies so much. trump should talk to his economists.

edit: context: wages are predicted to drop so low over the next 20 years that people will not be able to feed themselves on wages alone. social unrest is painful and to avoid it, some sort of Universal Basic Income will be unavoidable. That would have to be paid for by taxes that the rich would have to pay, since literally nobody else has any money. You see where this is going: the rich don't like their wealth to be taxed.

Can this medal be exchanged for food and shelter?

That's what women of child bearing age want and need. A medal. Not jobs, food, housing, security, nor equality.

I feel like I missed part of the article where it said that the current administration was planning on distributing this medal. What I read was more along the lines of them saying that the current administration is potentially implementing some pronatalist policies and the it describes one policy promoted by a pronatalist group, but nothing about the current administration planning on implementing that specific policy.

Not saying any of this is good and I tend to mentally gloss over parts of text that I read, I'm just earnestly missing where it says that specific policy is one that is being looked into and I would appreciate someone pointing it out to me.

Jesus fuck, if you want people to have kids, it is not that hard. Remove obstacles. On average, people want to have kids. It's an evolutionary drive. People override that drive when they do not feel secure enough to start a family. Just make that easier. That's it. Make sure people can afford to have kids, that they can provide them a comfortable and safe upbringing, that they can ready their kids to become adults, and that their kids' future seems likely to be bright. How?

Decrease inflation. Subsidize child care. Increase wages and benefits (raise the mimimum wage). Mandate maternity/paternity leave. Make coverage for kids on health, dental, and vision insurance less expensive, or provide medicare for all (or at least all children). Make sure young people can afford good homes off of minimum wage. Make sure good schools are available to everyone by improving public education and providing bussing. Make sure kids are safe in schools with gun control laws. Make sure college/trade schools are inexpensive and accessible. Stablize the economy. Promote good middle class jobs. Avoid war. Fight bigotry. Provide comprehensive sex education and family planning resources including abortion rights so that people can start families when they are ready and promote generational welfare rather than propogating generational poverty.

Notice how damn near all of these things that would increase the birth rate are antithetical to GOP policy though? You want the results, but not the means. You want to offer "medals" for motherhood like a boss offers a pizza party for a record profits last quarter. It's unserious, unhelpful, condescending, insulting, and still leaves new parents struggling to get by. Be better leaders with sensible policies. Maybe then you will get your wish.

Wait so we have too many immigrants but not enough babies?

What's going on?

Your masters want you to breed.

Whether you can afford to have children or not.

Augustus did this 2000 years ago. Dictators can only imagine so far.

comes with bag of onions.

Meloni copying this (once more, as Italy has already done it many times, since the 1920s) in 3...2...

"Coincidentally" also a thing that Putin is currently doing

Governments are always offering weird wacky incentives for women to have children, when the solution is usually patently obvious: you can increase fertility by making it easy and affordable to have children. Stipends for food, paid maternity/paternity leave, free childcare services, affordable housing, and a good economy with an abundance of high-paying jobs.

I mean... there's a reason the baby boom happened in the 50s! But no, that would be socialism!!

...could he just skip to the part where he feeds himself a bullet just like daddy-Hitler, already?

Have you heard about the military parade on his birthday?
