    If you wanna increase birth rates, take 100% of all the billionaire’s money (not a “reasonable tax amount” and spread it to everyone else.

    I’m more than willing to just let them be literally penniless (and disqualified for welfare) if the world will benefit from it. And it will.

    They don’t deserve an honest living, they deserve a solitary confinement cell.

      I’m open to them having social welfare after being stripped of their assets. I think I just expect that our prisons should provide its inmates with a humane standard of living of which they would of course have access to from their cell.

        They can have a minimum wage job.

        And hopefully after capping them at the knees (power and influence-wise), we can move to a society that actually has universal health care, even for minimum wage.

        I’m not ok with them benefiting from what society at large has been breaking their backs to fund.

        At least not outside of an emergency. I don’t wanna actually have them die because of actual medical issues in the mean time.

        Unless they make spectacles of themselves complaining about their new station in life. That can effectively qualify them to be cut off. Sunny nobody got a right to whine about not getting to use human sacrifice to their benefit anymore.

    Pokemon Create and every time you take a photo of a new newborn baby with the app, and send your genetic samples for verification, you have a chance to collect a rare pokemon

      Just redirects me to the start page 😕

      Edit: Doesn’t show up in the search either, but the “similar games” do give some hint about the nature of that game

      If it’s anything like the original, I am not sure that will solve the specific problem of declining birthrates.

      And here I paid for sleep as android like a rube… Better not start using Pokémon sleep, it’ll classify me somewhere between snorlax, psyduck, and goldeen.

    This was actually a thing in Hogwart’s Legacy, you had the option of capturing and breeding animals.
