I feel like this is probably pretty effective. I feel like it should be a thing.

Not more kids by total but more kids by %. But it won't be enough to keep the old people and economy in its current state alive.

Is a future dominated by kids raised by these families one worth going through all this effort for?

As I mentioned in another comment, one of the conservatives I know put their kid in a captain America outfit yesterday cuz he was "defending America".

If this was wide spread it wouldn't matter, the 1% would not have anyone to stand on.

So this is more scorched earth and punitive than it is trying to fix things?

It forces the system to become something new.

The system which is made up of a bunch of kids raised in brainwashed conservative households.

I feel like this is, in part, voluntarily abstaining from passing your values down to the next generation, which night not have the intended effect.

That new thing could be worse than the current thing without a plan to drive it to where we want to go.
