| Hungary Offers Free IVF Procedures with Goal of 2.1 Birthrate by 2030 |
| 2020-01-14 |
| [BREITBART] Starting this year, the Hungarian government is set to offer free in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures for couples wanting children in order to boost the national birthrate to 2.1 children by 2030. The Hungarian government has taken control of six private fertility clinics and plans to purchase new buildings in order to meet demands of the estimated 150,000 couples across the country who have fertility issues but want to have children, La Croix reports. Previously, IVF procedures were largely out of reach for many Hungarian couples due to the costs associated with the procedure, but now the pro-family government of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is planning to give all couples free access. Secretary of State for the Family Katalin Novák commented on the new measures saying: "If all couples who want a child manage to have a baby, Hungary will no longer have demographic problems." Hungary currently faces a demographic winter if trends are not reversed, with the population expected to decline from the current 9.7 million to six million by the year 2070. The Black Death reduced Europe's population by 30 to 60 percent in the 1400s. Birth control will do the same, if not worse, to include North America. So much for the population explosion...

| #3 Population marxism has never worked well and always leads to fertility redistribution to the less productive. Best to deal with the reasons WHY women tend to work and thus defer children. |
