Raising kids is expensive, and today young people can't afford their own home - how can they have children? Sure, other things may also be affecting this, but IMO raising inequality correlates very well with lower birth rates (at national level); anecdotally, all my friends with high income are having at least two kids.

Say what you will about Hungary but I think it came up with some great incentives for future parents: income tax cuts. If you have 4 kids you don't pay income tax for life.

Maybe... How much should childless people have to pay for other peoples' children?
