I like this, an appeal to their business sense:

“The letter warns IKEA that the drop in the birth rate will affect the company’s future business in Poland. “

You would think that a corporate giant would understand that catering to a group not known for prolific offspring would eventually cut into their bottom line.

They are into short term profits. DINKS (dual income, no kids) have more disposable income.

You would think they would know better than to put such an ad in Poland of all places. I really hope Poland stands strong and doesn't tolerate the new European New-Think. But as the post following yours said, IKEA is just looking at the short term profit from DINKs.
