The worldwide birth rate is declining and, for all their good intentions, pro-natal public policies aren’t spurring on a hoped-for baby boom. Elizabeth Nolan Brown is a senior editor at Reason and the author of newsletter the Reason Roundup. She joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the intersection of governments offering incentives to those who give birth and the passing of laws that take away bodily autonomy. Her article is “Storks Don’t Take Orders from the State.”
