The European middle class does not reproduce because they are heavily taxed to pay for other people's kids
The day of reckoning is coming very soon, when the number of middle-class taxpayers are not enough to support the welfare state
Are you saying it’s kind of an “Atlas Shrugged” reaction going on in the European upper and middle class whites?
Agreed. The gov't competes with children for dollars. There is only so much dough to go around. The higher the tax rate, the faster the country kills itself. Immigration slows the decline in the short run but brings other problems.
Bingo. I've said this, too. It's true even in the US -- the heavily taxed producers do not reproduce as heartily as the underclass. If you have to invest time and money in your education, it is understandable to start a family afterwards. If someone else is footing the bill--why wait, why worry?
They are better than free. They are profit centers.
