Man it is a wild coincidence how a biological event leading to mass disability and death happened at the same time as abortion being outlawed and child labor being legalized. It would be crazy to say that one was a response to the other, to ensure a steady supply of labor!
@drewtoothpaste I tend to agree that everything is labour vs capital.
Child labour changes are immediate.
But the forced births...is it even enough to be measurable in future decades?
Certainly the people needlessly wiped out by COVID or disabled out of the labour force was immediately measureable.
