Is this true? They're hiring the firm to do oppo research on Harris? And this happened a little under 2 weeks after RFK, Jr. dropped out of the race?

If I were a conspiracy theorist, I would conclude it was a quid pro quo. But I'm not, so I'll just say it's concerning.

This may be why he went to the Harris campaign first perhaps to see if she’d play ball so he could find dirt. All the while being offered a deal with Trump in his back pocket

Every accusation is an admission.

Elmo as Tiny's hype man was not something I ever thought was in the realm of possibility...

Coming from a woman that herself did not have children, it is a tough sell.
Mind you, I agree. This is a real problem. Of my 7 nephews/nieces, two have children (2 & 1). Two clearly say no way. One is undecided because of precisely the issues said in the video. The other wants to, but there are outside problems. The last one is too young to be even considering.
And, of course, I don't have any.
So, we are going slowly into fading away.

I like the perfectly dressed blonde in stilettos bringing them their drinks. Nice macho touch.

young people in the US cant afford kids because they are too burdened with debt - someone has told them they must own a car by the time they go to college, then they must own a home by the time they are 30... no wonder they cant afford anything after that. I lived in the US at that age, I did not own a car till I was 28, did not buy a home till I was 56. Greed, and peer pressure.

Fertility cliff is coming to India too and very soon.

Point is to live without borrowing

Unless living in NYC, Chicago, Philly, Metro DC, Metro Atlanta or San Fran, I can't even envision living in the USA without a car.
And owing a house is not a sign of greed. It is a financially savvy move. Own a house, any house, and you don't have to pay rent. Which, in the USA, means wasting at least $1200/month, every month.
You are right about debt (@Ashkor) but: isn't that precisely what the younger people are saying? That they can't afford kids?
(George Friedman says that having children nowadays is the worst FINANCIAL decision most people can me. He makes it clear he is talking about money, not the emotional aspects of parenthood).
