More people declining to get married and/or procreate is the problem the government should watch out for. And instead of banning sexbots, they should make having a child easier. Make it so low and middle income people in their early twenties can buy a house. Make it so women can take maternity leave without setting their career back years. Make it so father/non-carrier parents get parental leave at all. Make it so a sick kid doesn't destroy a family's finances forever. Make it so women have adequate protection pre and post sexual interaction so that the risks of getting it on are not as high.

AI sex bots are far from the most impactful thing driving people away from having kids.

Tho even in countries which have all these things, the birth rate is still low.

And needs to be even lower. Rich people use too many resources and the planet is being destroyed.

All I hear is we need to start culling the super rich.

Seem much smarter and humane to redistribute the resources, and direct most of those resources to find resource efficient processes.
