Why is a higher fertility rate correlated with how much of a shithole a place is?

r/K selection.

It's a form of insurance to make sure at least some of your kids live long enough to breed and pass on your genes.

People with higher quality of life tend to make less children for some reason

too busy with their good life to want to have children?

Explain Moldova and rest of Eastern Europe then.

Personally I think Europe has reached it's maximum carrying capacity. That's why birthrates are down.

Because it has to do with how each individual's opportunity cost calculations are structured to arrive at the decision of conceiving a child or not. In shitholes the opportunity cost for bearing kids is low, due to a combination of low wages and job opportunities for women and even inferred social value and other social-oriented things like low education levels.

>That's why birthrates are down.
Not everywhere in Europe tho. france for example has a higher fertility rate than Brazil, Chile and Colombia

Total fertility rate is an implied tragedy of the commons. Countries with a TFR below 2.1 are quite simply living on borrowed time, everyone wants to have the glamorous well playing jobs and no one wants to bear children. You need to structure the economy so that people naturally arrive at the decision of having children, by extending maternity leaves, increasing the wages of women (yes, unfortunately even more), increasing part time job rates, increasing job security, and on the social dimension, increasing the pro-children propaganda, educating people so they don't think kids are are burden, etc.

When you do this you're changing the parameters of people's opportunity cost functions and a much larger fraction of them will automatically and naturally arrive at the conclusion of having more children.

There are loads and loads of things you can do but the most important thing you must realize is that if TFR < 2.1 then you're living on borrowed material prosperity that you cannot sustain on the long term.

I hate to say it but the post-ww2 order is simple unsustainable. Populations in the west are gonna drop, organically, and then rise again. Only artificial growth (importing people from other countries) can maintain the welfare states, pensions, tax burden, ect. But that comes at the whole bunch of other cost which long term are not worth it.

Cause people still have traditional family values and the desire of forming a family
But mainly because they are stupid as fuck who can't control themselves.

post 1848 order is unsustainable
or in frances case 1789

people dont realize but these 2 go together

westerners see traditional life like some kind of weird puritanism while really its fucking drinking and partying except without contraception and you en up with the girl you knock up

Having a kid is a huge opportunity cost for middle class people

Eastern Europe isn't a poor shithole user, their GDP per capita is increasing by the years, having a kid is incredibly costly for people who aim to have a well paying professional career

In general they are unsustainable. I can't predict that far into the future but it would be my bet, a drop then a slow stabilized raise but it depends on way too many things. Some countries like France by accident or not actually found the correct way to structure their lives, and unlike what memes say their TFR is actually not due to the muslim immigrants.

Social considerations also play into people's decisions to act, just like economical/material ones. That people keep detracting more traditional lifestyles also plays a role in the decision to adopt one.

economical and material are mostly irrelevant
its about what kind of mentality and on what level of civilizational development people are

It's primarily related to urbanization (industrialisation) but also social change like education and equal rights

India is a shithole by many means but they still only have a fertility rate of 2,40. Fertility rates have been falling on every continent since the 80's

>Eastern Europe isn't a poor shithole user, their GDP per capita is increasing by the years,
Depends. Central Europe is alright. Moldova, Belarus, Ukraine and much of Russia is still poor by Western standards.

can't afford condoms, birth control pills and abortions probably. if abortions weren't totally cost-free in russia we would have hight birth rates too

Funny how the most iberian cunts this side of the atlantic, namely Cuba, PR, Colombia and Brazil are the ones with the lowest birthrate and Spain itself having being among the lowest in Europe. Wtf is up with iberians and not be willing to have offspring?

Iberians can only have offspring if the girl in question looks like this.

White people + secularism

All these deluded answers. Notice that most countries with low birthrates are controlled by Jews. You swallow Jewish propaganda for birthcontrol and child-hate. You remain man-children consuming childish capeshit and gaymes. You believe environmentalism and veganism are in exclusion to humans thriving. You take space exploration as your imaginary escape. All the while your race spirals to extinction.

Even most favelados don't want to have kids early

Because shitty countries don't have social security, so people have to make children that will sustain them after they become unable to work. Also, shitty economies are mostly based on subsistence farming, so more children = more people working in the fields

Those cunts are religious though.

Cunts = Short hand for country and not an insult, I should clarify for newfags.

That doesn't explain why every single race has falling fertility rates or why it seems to be related to how agrarian a country is

No. No they are not.

Syria is religious. Moldova is not.

When you have a poor dysfunctional state there are pragmatic reasons to have kids. They can work and having a family is the only social security net you have. If you have to retire or get sick or are out of and have no family then may as well just fucking shoot yourself. Also if its socially unacceptable/they probably have aids to have sex unless you're married and the culture looks down on rubbing out a quickie and you're surrounded by other at almost all times. Getting married and having little to no birth control means lots of kids.

Look at a first world country though. 100% stick and no carrot except purely emotional. Porn exists and you don't have to commit to marriage for basically life to get a root. Kids are a absolutely huge money sink that get up and leave and unless they're 1 in a million there will literally be no pay off. Also with so much birth control you can plan kids. slightly lower than replacement rate is doing well all things considered.

>Syria is religious. Moldova is not.
And your proof is what exactly? 72% of Moldovans say religion plays an important role in their life.

Niggertina is such a fucking third world banana republic backwards poor ass brown shithole.
Beats me why the population is growing instead of decreasing.

France's rate is high most probably because of immigrants.

>a poll on religion being “important” is a reflection of how religious someone is
Hahahahah

Syria responded 98% on that poll.

>two countries are objectively religious but because one country is more religious than the other it somehow negates the religiosity of the first one.

>They can work and having a family is the only social security net you have
It's jewish fairy tales. They just don't know about condoms or dont have money for to buy them.

72% is significantly different from 98%, user.

You seem to think that there is no real difference between the religiosity that makes people believe stoning sodomites is normal and accepted, and the other where contraception is widely accepted and sodomites aren’t stoned to death.

>You seem to think that there is no real difference between the religiosity that makes people believe stoning sodomites is normal and accepted,
Most Eastern Europeans probably believe this even though they don't act upon it.

never ending immigration thanks to a welfare state
walk by one of those expensive private schools and you'll see people dropping their 1, maybe 2 kids off from their expensive cars
go to a public school on a shitty neighborhood by noon and you'll see fat 1,5m tall Bolivian mongrel women picking up their 4 kids, none of wich will be speaking with an Argentinian accent
