&gt; <i>I think we should not incentivize people to have children.</i><p>It&#x27;s not that simple. If your people won&#x27;t breed, your civilization will die out, along with all its values, culture and legacy. That is, if it doesn&#x27;t get conquered by another civilization before. Incentivizing &quot;wrong&quot; people to breed may be a danger, but disincentivizing everyone is even more dangerous.
