      It's difficult to distinguish between the society-destroying effects of neoliberalism/capitalism and social liberalism/leftism. I guess China will be instructive to watch in this respect.

      I'm not completely against the idea that modern social collapse and atomization is a side effect of capitalism but we really have no way of knowing that

      To be quite fair, that sounds like an East Asian developmental state (Japan, Korea), which seem somewhat better on the atomization point, but not perfect. But maybe non-bureaucratic Tory socialism? I'm a big fan of using Thaler-Sunstein "nudge" to promote pro-social outcomes.

      I actually have no idea, I should have a friend ask him. To be quite fair, child support less important in Japan, where the cost of raising a child is much much lower than the US. I have Japanese friends who pay like $150 a month for childcare holy shit

      America is also a hellsociety for raising children and I do blame that on neoliberalism (insane rat-race arms race for the handful of few good jobs in America). and the general mental illness of the professional/neoliberal class.

      I think neolib policies have allowed almost all economic growth to percolate to upscale professionals in coastal metropolises, which means very few good jobs. Also insane educational policies (from the typical neolib "MORE EDUCATION ALWAYS GOOD")

      But the fertility of the subgroup with "good jobs" is pretty terrible

          IIRC, fertility is actually a parabola in America (it drops with the middle class and rises as you make more $$$). This is what neolibs want. An elite nobility with plenty of serfs. https://cardi.cals.cornell.edu/sites/cardi.cals.cornell.edu/files/resize/shared/NYM-Fertility-Age_2013-500x298.jpg …
