    Lol 1950 was a great time to have kids, ever heard of baby boomers? The war boosted the economy, lots of people owned houses and started families. Same after world war 1, there were the “roaring 20s” before the great depression hit.

      It is always a great time to have kids.

      That's the joke.

            Yes, and I’d rather go through demographic collapse instead of global resource shortages that lead to massive amounts of death and suffering.
