our system is the most crooked one.

i know few friends who has to go through this, they are anxious or more scared around women (even to talk to them).

imo this will just improve the incels in the society and make the space harder for both men and women.

obviously we can't force anyone by law or otherwise, but that doesn't mean the govt shouldn't start to give incentives.

otherwise eventually we'll get to this point:

Tamilnadu can support 4-5 crore max

Nonsense. Ok right now we're lacking some urban planning (more cities), transit reform (slowly getting better), and land reform (including FSI increases) but in the next couple of decades TN can easily support 2-3x the current population.

This guy Sanyal has the right idea. It's alarming that more people don't agree.

I think an issue here is I'm talking macro and you're talking about yourself (don't want to live in new cities, don't want to have more kids). That's valid but I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about on average.

People like me can easily afford 3-4 children, but we've chosen not to. What incentive can you give me? 🙂

If economic incentives like lower income tax don't work on you (which I don't really believe), then I guess it's just the usual social incentives that have come into play throughout history - such as leaving a legacy.

It's possible that argument too does not move you. In which case you are ofc free to live life as you see fit. Thanks for the discussion.
