Multilevel taxation is one of the causes of a reduced birth rate in the developed countries. One European country with a birth rate problem cut taxes and the birth rate increased. Birth rate of most species is food based. Now though, with humans it is expanded, but still resourced based. College being a major impact. Blue collar parents dreaming of sending their kids to money sucking colleges will have less kids than blue collar parents dreaming of having blue collar kids. I would bet that if college became significantly less expensive, then blue and newly minted white collar parents would have more kids. https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Wm2D18yp7FU/Uh0YSRtkvCI/AAAAAAAAA-I/bZAtVaFJgQ0/s1600/CPIcomparisons.png
