Surprisingly, it is more complicated than that. Others countries need to look at Japan as an example of a place that when you price people out, they get out.

It's really expensive to have a child in Japan (not birthing and medical stuff, but evertything after) so...........people have less children.

It was like 2.4 children per married couple in the 80s and now it is like 1.2.
