According to Tom Bethell, as GDP per capita rises, the number of
children per family:
goes up.
stays the same.
goes down.
you cannot say, for there is no connection.
According to Tom Bethell, fertility has declined in most wealthy
countries because:
young people have read about the horrors of overpopulation.
people in wealthy countries can afford abortions.
people are wary of high taxes on excess children.
wealth leads to a decline in religion, and the two together push
down childbearing.
