Europe has a low-fertility problem : so why does it tax its own reproduction?

Societies adhere to an erroneous “stork theory” of child-rearing when they do not account for all the resources required to raise the next generation, writes Pieter Vanhuysse. This helps explain why European countries currently tax rather than subsidise their own reproduction, despite fertility rates stubbornly sitting well below the replacement level required to maintain the size of the population.
