...Many [female rats] were unable to carry the pregnancy to full term or to survive delivery of their litters if they did. An even greater number, after successfully giving birth, fell short in their maternal functions.

Zeihan does a good job of sounding smart and knowledgeable. But he’s consistently wrong about everything. I think he’s Deep State/CIA. He spreads propaganda (and he hates Trump very much).
Doesn’t Putie want more babies?
Seems like he could put some restrictions on abortion and accomplish it pretty easily.
