A friend of mine forwarded me a funny story yesterday- it appears that a small city in Russia has scheduled "paid time off" to procreate. The mayor of the city had officially decraled a "procreation day", and all city residents are free to go home and pay day dues to the falling growth rates in Russia. While the story evokes a lot of humor and follow up questions, it also raised an interesting point: when is it high time mayors address such social issues as dangerously low, or even negative birth rates?
