There was an article on Drudge last week about Russia, oops, the Soviet Union, and their massive summer camps for children where they indoctrinated them into obedience to the state and ENCOURAGED them to have babies for the state. They even had tents set up there, minus condoms, to experiment with “pro-creation”. Sorry, don’t have the source.

Russia has a major population problem. Poor health care and and declining birth rates mean their country will succumb to the Muslims within 30-50 years at most.

ENCOURAGED them to have babies for the state

Russia has a population problem. They are always more heavy handed than us, but at least they recognize that the solution is more sex. Programs like you describe are factors that the demographic demagogues can never foresee.
