Around 40% of pregnancies are out of wedlock. Assuming widespread use  say 3/4 of them will be reduced.

This should reduce the TFR by by I don&#039;t know 30% and drop the birth rate to around 1.4 to 1.5 in the US 

That said, if we want fertility, its going to require massive changes that not to put fine a point on it are politically impossible in any currently configured society. 

Democracy, women suffrage, economic liberty (not markets, those stay) birth control pills , trade, immigration , any tolerance of Leftism , hell probably free speech to some degree  a lot of those things have to go.

we aren&#039;t ready for that and in truth, even if we could pull it off, no guarantee that any of those things will work. ]]></description>

That might be a step too far even for the Chinese. For a sense of perspective, anywhere between 20 and 50 million Chinese starved to death or were killed during the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution- and that caused permanent scarring within China. Slaughtering 400 million, in a nation of 1.3 billion or so? Even if Beijing&#039;s leadership were that galactically stupid, there wouldn&#039;t be enough land to put all the bodies.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&#034;China will have about 400 million very old poor people- and its population isn&#039;t growing nearly fast enough to offset the massive impact this will have upon their economy.&#034;

No problem for China, those 400 million will be euthanized.   Unlike the west, China isn&#039;t hampered by sentimentalism.]]></description>
