I've decided to become a pro-natalist.

Why? Something about the role of interdependence in the good society? A utilitarian view that increasing the number of good lives is best?

The more humans there are, the more people are likely to be ranked lower than me! If people have too many kids to properly invest in them, that just improves my chances!

Think of the children!

I will backfill with babies! You watch me!
