Lots and lots of older people collecting Social Security and Medicare. That money has to come out of the paychecks of younger people, and if the ration of Young-to-Old is too skewed, then it’s a problem.

No reason to have kids if you can collect Social Security when you get old.

“No reason to have kids if you can collect Social Security when you get old.”

Not remotely true. I don’t know of anyone who had kids “because government will support me when I’m old”. Nor is that the value of kids.
