Birthrates have been falling ever since the invention of the pill. Children (often multiple) could no longer be forced upon women. This, along with women becoming their own economic units meant that they no longer have to risk their life and bodies in return for food and shelter from a man.

It has not.
Not providing a society the cultivates the families that create and cultivate children has. Providing a system that helps parents raise children rather than be wage slaves makes people want to have kids.

Cool, I take it you'll join my anti-immigration and anti-women-in-the-workforce rally then? It's my simple solution to raise wages so that families are affordable on a single income.

You have a very literal example in Japan and last I checked I don't think they were doing very well either.
I don't think your simple solution is quite so simple.
