I see on FR all the time conservatives that try to divorce the social and economic.

One lady opting to be a single mom isn't going to affect society much. But it's the cumulative affect of this societal trend that will have an impact. Problems brought on by negative societal trends/experiments begat social programs. Social programs begat social spending and governmental departments. Pretty soon your society is on a death spiral like Europe and Russia from which there is a little hope for recovery.

So what is Putin doing to reverse the negative impact of a low birth rate--he's offering money for women to have children. This is what lefties and Republicans unfortunately come up with over here as well to solve social problems--more spending. I don't think you can divorce the social health of a country and the economic health of a country.
