The natal crisis is easily solved in much the same way that national defense is addressed. All men are required to register for the draft at age 18 or lose many benefits of society and risk being charged with a felony. They are REQUIRED to serve when asked if they are fit to do so regardless of whether it is convenient. By the same argument, the nation should REQUIRE all women to provide at least 2 children to the nation or join the military. Elective abortion would be illegal for any woman who has not fulfilled her duty to the nation. Any woman not prepared to do this should lose the right to vote and hold elective office as a man who refused to register or respond to the draft would.

Well, the Nazis tried that.
I can see the need for this -- but it won't be easy!
