Fixing the Economy: Japan Wants More Babies, Pelosi Wants Less

The western world is finding that their population is not self-sustaining. Around Europe people are having fewer and fewer children and as they look to their future they see a day when the workers will be too few to sustain their economies. In Japan, they are looking to ways to increase birth rates for the same reason. Here in US, we are now at a rate of 1.9 children per family, still much higher than much of the world, but dropping dramically from years past and below population sustaining levels but Pelosi says that to help our economy we must drop birth rates through birth control! Pelosi is clearly looking only short term as her socialist policies can not be sustained with shrinking birth rates. More than that she is rejecting God's greatest blessings.... children.

Here are the relevant articles.

Japan Looks to Increase Births
Pelosi Says Birth Control Key to Economic Situation

"Often, instead of feeling loved and cherished, they appear to be merely tolerated." Pope Benedict XVI What a sad, sad statement about our world.

Liberal agenda now seems to be a movement that despises children... wanting to prevent them, and if not prevented then killed, and if still alive, removed as early as possible from parental influences to be raised by the state instead of in the nurturing care of their families. But, they are wrong... children are precious to God and are an incredible blessing... and it is a grave tragedy that our world is increasingly rejecting that belief. Our children suffer. And the world with them.
