    I remember watching a video not long ago about this girl in South Korea who went to uni, couldn’t find a job in her area. Then started doing web development and also had to work in a convenience store and could barely survive.

    I know there’s a lot of people who never wanted to have kids to begin with and that pop decline is a worldwide phenomenon right now. However, even if someone wanted to have kids, how the heck can you do it if you can barely survive even with 2 jobs?
