It has nothing to do with fertility, it's the cost of living.

Sane people that are responsible..... don't have a huge number of kids, because they know they will not be able to afford them.

People that have lower IQs, breed like flies because they know the "government will pay for it".

It's both. There are marked decreased in sperm counts in Western males, but yes, also because nobody has the money to have seven children anymore.

I'm willing to bet in 100 years they will look back and realize that the "plastic everything" we eat, drink, sleep and wear is the equivalent to the lead pots of ancient Rome.
