Fortune magazine: millennials choosing to be DINKS (dual income no kids) could push GDP down by as much as 4%

I don't see much of a problem with it. I wanted to have a kid so I did, and it's been fun, but I've got a special skillset that lets me bypass regular work and let's her stay home with my wife so it works. A lot of these people though, they'd have to make too much money working and spend too much time doing so to really raise their kid how they need to and not let daycare and school raise them instead.
Less kids now means less producers later which means companies will be forced to lower prices with that demand not even being born

Economists and whole governments still seething about this
Cars are 50k, interest rates are through the roof, houses are 4 times as much as they were 10 years ago, childcare, groceries…. And salaries are stagnant for the most part.
Having a kid is expensive. Probably to expensive for most people who want to keep living their same lifestyle.
My wife is taking me to tour a daycare this week that’s 20k a year…. For our one year old. AND she wants to have another baby.

Your broad loves me.....
Its simple. People cant afford to have kids in this economy. Fix the economy and the birthrate will change. Bringing immigrants in isnt going to do nothing but phase your race out(to my palm colored people)..
Which is why they trying to get rid of abortion. White women isnt having enough babies.

Does every car cost 50k ?
The average price of a new car is 48k. Close enough.
Cheapest you can get new is a Nissa Versa for 18K - 22K
but broke people don't like to look broke, so they will go out and finance more expensive cars and complain about how expensive they are.
In fact american culture is so averse to appearing broke, there is not really a market for cheap cars. If they made a car that only cost 2K. Nobody would buy it.

And what is a high or growing GDP doing for young people? Making their money worth less, making houses and even apartments unaffordable, inflation completely out of control and governments being complicit because they and their buddies are making more money than ever.
