>Are birthrates really that important?
You need to look at it like an idiotic bureaucrat. We need more people to pay taxes. We have more taxes so we can increase spending. We're spending more, which requires an expanded tax base. Seems like it always boils down to some subversive economist's demands for [X] percent growth.
They don't have enough money to cover the boomers Social Security checks? That's no reason to open the doors like they did in Toledo.
