Childless women are useless and people with degrees are worse people.
Lesson failed.
The US is a net exporter of oil, and has been one for the last several years.

Why do you want to increase production if you're not going to export?
What does this have to do with the article?
Who would have thought that being terrible people would be a bad strategy.
Well, it worked 2016 right?
Many are childless because they have been beholden to corporations and rich people far more than their parents were. They never had an opportunity to give their kids at least the life they had, so they opted not to have them. It's not that they didn't want them. They responded to the situation they were given.
I see these folks with generational wealth who have 16 children. It must be nice, but they're just another side of the same problem.
Chiding people for being childless is possibly the most tone-deaf take ever, and even more so from rich, corpo pawns.

Party?
I remember when I was a fundamentalist evangelical christian pro-life activist in my late preteens/early teens (picketing clinics was a favorite family activity), we used to have signs that said 'Adoption: the loving option'.
Turns out, maybe they don't care about adoption anymore. Just wombs.
A lot of these fucks like adoption, only because kids who've been bounced from foster to foster are way easier to indoctrinate into things. Just need to show them some attention.
