Understanding the Impact of Policy on Fertility Rates

Almost every rich country (including America) isn't having enough kids to sustain their current population. Is this something we should be worried about? And if so, how do we fix it? Lyman Stone is the Director of the Pronatalism Initiative and joins the show to discuss the ideas around pronatalism. Why is it a problem if society has fewer and fewer kids each generation? Are there economic or cultural barriers to people having as many kids as they'd like to? And what policies can impact the fertility rate? We discuss all this and more!
