China’s Family-Building Incentives are not Working

from The Spectacle Podcast: The Official Podcast of The American Spectator

China is finally facing the long-term consequences of its one-child policy as the nation heads toward a population collapse. Where the government once fined families for having more than one child, it is now offering financial incentives for parents to have more. But for many struggling families, it’s simply not enough. Join Spectator P.M. Podcast hosts Ellie Gardey Holmes and Lyrah Margo as they discuss the reality facing Chinese society as its population continues to shrink. They explore the lack of hope many in China feel and what this crisis can reveal about what our own society may begin to face here in the United States. Tune in to hear their conversation!
