Not to get all political or spin conspiracy theories, but this makes you wonder why we are going in a direction where abortion + birth control will be illegal (at least for most people). Not to mention relaxing the age requirements for being able to work. Could this be a strategy to force people to reproduce and ensure that the poorly payed, disposable workers supply does not run dry?

At least in America, the most-popular-and-growing preference for birth control seems to be "not in a relationship". Trying to force people past that barrier might get some more-zealous pushback.

Oh the pushback is real. Is it going to help?

If that were the case the powers that be would be using the carrot as well as the stick. Parental leave, tax breaks, etc.
Maybe, with regard to living in an area with/without kids around.
But for those who want to have children of their own...what I've heard from younger folks around here, that really does not look like an option anymore, unless you're in the 1%.
