Still low crime, stick to their quarantine zones and relatively harmless.

Only the chosen ones are needed to have kids. Even if you do have any, they’re not guaranteed to continue the same path as you or your descendants. The ones that do have do not wait and ask continuously like a child asking for permission in a class, they just go and do it.

I wonder if people think they're too "cool" for it. They think that it's old fashioned and the modern, enlightened thing to do is focus entirely on yourself (because kids are le heckin' crotch goblin parasites!)
It's one thing if you think you don't have the resources for it, but simply not wanting to have kids sounds completely retarded to me. The goal of every animal is to reproduce so if you are childless you live your entire life without fulfilling your one inherent goal; what are you even supposed to do without a family to look after?

You can live on 45k a year if you arn't in a major metro area. alot of people make seemingly minor purchaces that add up. eating out, car payments (Every school drop off is full of a new suv's sold at 90k), fashion trends, keeping up with the Jonses. Gas adds up.

I have 3 kids and make like 65k a year. Its not a material issue, its a spiritual issue. The highly religious and less deracinated dont have these issues and have the highest birth rates since they have the social capital intact and lack the modern obsession with material and status. They have a better understanding of their own humanity and can follow intergenerational wisdom that has guided surviving cultures for ages. One of these is that you need to genuinely not fear the consequences of punishment , hardship, and death. I myself am just a deist but I believe in a divine purpose and recognize the need for belief in higher powers to conquer death. Is it difficult to raise 3 kids on 65k a year? Sure, but it is nothing compared to what my ancestors have faced and I do not fear it. That is the mentality that modern people lack, instead everyone languishes in inaction and self pity, shift blame onto anyone but themselves, and throw away a better life in the name of self worship and ego.

Asceticism isnt rooted in self hatred but an understanding beyond yourself, modernity is only geared around momentary comfort and self pity. If you abandon these things then creating a family is automatic, it is just something you do. Thats why there is an IQ gap in birth rates, people too stupid to be indoctrinated in modern culture arent affected by it but the highly educated and highly religious arent either.

That doesn't make my life any better. I can buy a big TV for $300 but once I have that TV I don't need another one. On the other hand a modest home is $300,000 and a used car is $20,000.

*2000 max. In fact often less, one of my buddies buys them off people for like 500 dollars and just knows how to keep them running

Youre getting scammed by used car salesman dude. Also youre too good for canned food? Im guessing youre too good for food banks and the discount shelf too then. The other problem is just that youre complaining about being "poor" not even knowing that the standard of living you have is insane. If you can blow 20k on a used car ( and i hope you arent doing that on loan i swear to god) you are living better than most kings did back in the day. One of my friends is a manager at a Chic Fil A now but lived for years literally out of his car getting by with whatever he could with 4 kids after his wife died. Like 2 years he lived that way just getting by and saving up money, times were hard and I never heard him complain about it as a goddamn dishwasher with about the worst luck in the world. Thats what its really like to be broke and destitute. Youre making 100k a year and cant muster the courage to live somewhere cheaper, downsize your spending, learn how to be self reliant or anything? There are skills you can learn from other people if you just reach out, there are communities to turn to, there are ways to get by in way less if youre willing to accept saying no ro certain material things.

Its not "avocado toast and coffee" or whatever the boomers who grew up middle class and larp as if they grew up in the trailer park / hood say, those are nothing. if you've been conditioned to thinking 20k for a used car is normal I guarantee there is more going on than you realize which most americans have been scammed into believing. There are systemic issues with the economy and especially housing costs but you aren't a poorfag at 100k a year and can easily afford kids
