I adore well-written satire and this article certainly hits the spot. Were it serious, one would be concerned for the mental health of the author, but as satire it's laugh-out-loud hilarious. Written as if the author imagined that a few middle-class couples electing to be childless were a catastrophe of huge proportions, this comedy piece takes the reducto-ad-absurdum approach to the limit. It's so funny it could almost be taken from the moron Musk's diaries, though there's no reference (alas) to building a billionaire's panic room on Mars to "save the human species" (in fact, the species needs to be saved from infantile cretins like Musk and his idol Trump).
