Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 208: The human villain
The first route, suppressing the natural population birth rate, is not family planning, but a more tender way.
Want to have a baby? Yes, there is no problem at all, and there are even certain policies to support individual childbearing.
But a child has to be nurtured. The process of raising children is not only a personal matter, but also a public matter of the entire society. It requires a certain ability, and parents are not so good.
The majority of people on the spacecraft are young people. Except for some kindergarten teachers, it is impossible to have parenting experience, and there is no help from the older generation. The support robot is still in an experimental state for the time being and has not yet been mass-produced. It is impossible to allocate one to each family.
In order to reduce the occurrence of unqualified parents, please take a certificate "Parent Certificate" first.
According to the regulations, both parents have to take the test, and after the certificate is taken, they can have children.
This kind of natural "political correctness" of course has won unanimous praise from the broad masses of people. After all, the vast majority of people who eat melon do not have the will to have children at all. The few remaining people can only bite the bullet and accept it, and giving birth without a certificate will be unanimously condemned by public opinion.
With just such a small population, you can't see you with your head up and down. If you are despised for a long time, life will become very difficult.
These parents found out. The difficulty of the textual research is much higher than expected, and it may not be possible to pass the test several times, including how many rebellious periods the child has, when do they need to supplement what nutrition, how to get through the rebellious period, etc... The problem is very difficult.
Some people see such troubles, and simply don’t bother to give birth.
The second is to promote eugenics.
At present, the new civilization is thriving. Although the current living conditions have improved, there is still no such thing as milk powder. There is not even a cow, and the cow has yet to be cloned from an artificial womb...
Natural diapers, pacifiers and the like are of course impossible.
Well, anyway, there is no such kind of material conditions. These are objective facts. The entire civilization does not need these, but it takes time to produce these resources.
If you still insist on having a baby in this situation, try to overcome the difficulties you encounter by yourself...
Especially, the long-term public opinion propaganda has made everyone a natural thinking "Under the condition of immature conditions, not having children casually is the basic quality of a responsible adult."
"Too poor, everyone is still digging and farming."
"I ran for 20 light years just to have a baby? Aliens will be laughed to death by you."
"I will die a few years later, so anxious."
In addition, the higher the education level, the lower the willingness to have children. This is also an objective law.
In this way, with the cooperation of the objective environment and subjective policies, the birth rate of the entire civilization is naturally suppressed relatively low.
The sluggish birth rate has made some people of insight jump anxiously, urging everyone to let go of their lives. But this kind of willingness is not something that can be increased by appealing...Who wants to have ten children like a pig?
After thinking about these objective factors and sorting out his thoughts, Zhang Yuan raised his head and walked into the meeting room.
This time the scientific conference is quite grand. The data in development is already known to everyone, but it was announced in official form.
Captain Zhao made a solemn speech on stage: "...This year's work has been completed successfully, even over-fulfilled. I am very grateful to everyone for their hard work and the silent dedication of the 60,000 engineers on the surface. Without your active work , There will be no normal operation of this society, let alone a better and better life for us."
Papa!
There was a round of applause from the audience.
"The task in the next few years is to develop more sophisticated technology. The earth civilization has left us with a lot of precious heritage, enough for us to enter the real interstellar age. The second is to improve the automation level of all projects. , There is still a lot of room for optimization. When the industrial population cannot grow on a large scale, improving automation capabilities is the only way to improve work efficiency..."
"There is also the population issue, a more important issue. Regarding this, every person of insight should be worried..."
"Population has become an important factor restricting our development. Many projects, we cannot continue, because of the small population. Do you know what kind of work is the greatest contribution to the entire civilization?"
After a pause for a few seconds, Captain Zhao smiled and said, “It’s not mining on the surface, or being a scientist, let alone talking on stage like me. It’s giving birth to 10 or even 20. The above children, raise them up, then these parents are comparable to the greatest heroes in the world!"
Some people at the bottom of couldn't help laughing, it was just a little joke in a serious meeting.
Captain Zhao continued: "...Of course, human beings are not pigs, and there is no way to give birth to ten at once. The next generation of childbirth is not only a matter of civilization, but also personal freedom. So we cannot force childbirth. In addition, the objective environment is worrying, even I don’t have any children myself. I’m so busy, I can’t help it, and I’m not interested in having a child..."
After saying this, there was a long silence in the conference room.
Everyone seems to have expected what will happen next...
followed, it was the highlight, to truly solve the population problem!
This population bill should have been proposed by the Minister of Human Resources himself, but this bill is a key content in the history of new civilizations. In addition, the minister’s weight and popularity are not enough. …Maybe as soon as it is raised, it will be scolded by the public.
Only Zhang Yuan's level, high enough prestige, and powerful figures of the New Civilization Development Department can make a big splash!
Time...it's up.
Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and got up from the stool.
"Mr. Zhang Yuan, I think you should know what will happen after you submit this proposal. If I were you~IndoMTL.com~ I would definitely think twice... Its impact on us is so great Big."
Sitting next to him, a female congresswoman from the Ministry of Education suddenly said, “We are really pressing for the time period for large-scale reproduction of babies with artificial womb technology? Or... is it just the personal selfishness of your whole school? "
Zhang Yuan smiled and looked at her: "I don't think it's urgent, I think you know it in your heart, I'm just for civilization."
Both the expression and the tone are very plain.
But in this plainness, the congresswoman suddenly felt a biting cold wind from the remote North Pole.
Deep in the core of the entire civilization, there seems to be a strong and cold will that is slowly pushing all this. No matter what kind of resistance, it is just a man's arm as a car.
felt the pressure, she frowned and said: "I will vote against it."
Zhang Yuan smiled, but the words were not soft: "Your opposition alone is invalid, we are a democratic society...Of course, you have the right to speak, and you can put forward a rebuttal at any time."
He took a stack of papers to the stage, walking steadily and calmly.
A copy of the information is displayed on the big screen.
In an instant, like boiling water, the entire conference room boiled!
"About the use of artificial uterus technology to incubate babies in batches"!
