Not surprising. I’ve seen clips of government workers visiting young people at their homes to pressure them to have children.

When a government demands people to have more kids to maintain it's inertia; whether it be U.S., China, or anywhere else, I can only say that the plot is completely lost, and said civic edifice deserves the collapse or be reformed through force. A people should never serve a government.
