I’d also bring in the ripple effect of this. We know there’s not enough children being born.
There’s not going to be a workforce to pay our pensions when we get old. I’m less likely to spend my money on a dependant, when I should be buying property as a commodity so that I can have means to live at old age.

Hadn’t considered that! I’m already middle-aged with two small children, too late for me.
