[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If so, I am optimistic that this will result in the added bonus of diminishing their progressive political ideaology since the couples who will likely opt into continuing to reproduce will trend conservative.[/quote]

It's a dynamic equilibrium.

Conservatives create more conservatives by birthing them, and then create progressives by raising them.

I’m not sure about that. 
A lot more people become progressive after having struggled through life.

A strong indicator for having to struggle through life having been an unwanted or unplanned for child. Before contraception and women having the ability to have careers and really make their own life choices, there were a lot more unwanted/uncared for  kids being born, therefore more trauma, therefore more obstacles, and a harder life.

Kids growing up in a family that loves and wants them are generally going to grow up to be successful productive adults who may need to rely less on social services, therefore might not necessarily see why they are needed for some people.

I think becoming educated where you learn to think about the broad impacts of policy, the situations of people outside your own life and think about what is fair etc. is what pushes people to a more liberal perspective.  [/quote]
