Because the elites are attacking all things needed to reproduce because they want to limit the human population to 500 million.
This isn't quite true. While it is the case that the elites are happy to see zero or negative population growth in America and Europe, they also want a huge pool of cheap and pliant labor, i.e. coolie IT employees from India and China, farm and unskilled manual laborers from Latin America. So they're all for a world overrun by billions, as long as those billions are Third World people who obediently work a plantation for peanuts.
Well, then the "elites" are doing a piss-poor job of it in Africa!
The continent is bursting at the seams with babies!
