When we were in China we enjoyed watching the little children playing with their grandparents. We then realized that not only do these children not have siblings to play with, they don’t have cousins either. When you destroy the family by taking away progeny, there is no one left to take care of the elderly, except the government.

Some don't realize that “Honor thy mother and thy father” does not mean do what mom and dad tell you to do. That is just a given. This commandment means that we are to honor our parents by taking care of them in old age the way that they took care of us as infants. Gubmint care for my parents terrifies me!

Excellent observation and analysis.

I’d add that with no siblings or near family, the young will tend to bond with their authority figures (the State), thus forming a form of brotherhood with the State.

Given Asia’s preference for boys, girls have been aborted disproportionately. Historically, whenever a nation finds a high enough ratio of men-to-women, those nations have “offshored” that restless and aggressive population of unmated men to fight in wars abroad.

So, even though it is CounterIntuitive, since Restricting the Birthrate among Illegal Immigrants would reduce the Number of voters for the Democrats, It actually works out OK, because there will be fewer people to take care of the Elderly and they will Die off Faster that way and change the Voter Demographic so it is Biased to the Democrats.

Yet another good Conspiracy Theory.

But, It could happen.
