Can't find the video on youtube now, but it was titled something like "why liberals are dying out".

It showed a middle class couple sitting on a couch in a nice living room discussing how they want to wait a few years to have kids now that they're married.

It cuts to a trailer park with two rednecks yelling at each other. A couple. The woman is holding a baby and pregnant with another.

Cut back to the couple with the caption "5 years later". They explain why they're still waiting.

Cut back to the rednecks. Still in the trailer. Still yelling at each other. Now there are least 3 kids under the age of 5 and the wife is still pregnant.

You get the idea.
???? You think rednecks in trailer parks are conservative? Those who vote Republican have higher incomes and levels of education than those who vote democrat. Many conservatives are affluent church going people with 3-5 kids.
Most trailer parks Im familiar with are either predominantly retirees or predominately younger couples of the blue collar type. Old folks more likely to be consevative and the blue collar more likely to be liberal.

Interesting to see who is making babies and who is not.

Niger Mali Uganda and Afghanistan top the list as top procreaters. The more advanced, the more educated, the more affluent a country is, the lower their birth rate. I think in a modern, affluent society our satisfaction is gained through material possesions and personal enjoyment. If your living in a mud hut in Uganda you might as well make a bunch of kids because satisfaction through material possesions and personal enjoyment is harder to come by.
