Left Wingers for years were complaining about over-population. You see people pollute and do bad things to rape mother Gaia, so praise be upon places like China who limits parents to one child.
Of course that can upset the commie apple cart a bit:
We have entered the age of the fertility panic. Country after country is discovering that smaller families are causing the population to shrink, which means more old people, and therefore higher government expenses and lower tax revenues. And many of those countries are then jumping to the wrong conclusion: that they should persuade people to have more kids.
But what about mother Gaia????? What about carbon footprints? What about trash, waste and pollution???
Snicker…
Since when are progressives worried about cost? Democracy will save them. Just ask 99% of the people if they want the remaining 1% to pay for it.
It’s only a matter of time before killing old people is policy.
That’s SOP for socialized medicine as much as mass-murder is for National Socialism.
As far as I know, environmentalists (aka “Left Wingers”) still complain about overpopulation. They’re not suddenly advocating larger populations.
