As the Chinese Communist Party seeks to slowly reverse a longstanding attempt to curb population numbers, the authoritarian regime is now discouraging abortion and encouraging multi-children households to boost its population growth.
China was notorious for decades for its one-child policy, but as record-low birth rates threaten its long-term goals of global domination, it has slowly reversed course.
On Tuesday, Reuters reported, the National Health Authority announced new steps to increase the nation’s birth rate, which include expanded education and housing and tax and insurance incentives for growing families.
Efforts will also be aimed at “preventing unintended pregnancy and reducing abortions that are not medically necessary.”
The new measures are being put in place for the sake of “promoting the long-term balanced development of the population,” the authority said.
Reuters noted that China’s fertility rate of 1.16 for 2021 is well below the ideal rate to maintain a population, 2.1. The birth rate is on track to sink to a record-low fewer than 10 million babies, and 2021’s 10.6 million marked an 11.5% drop from 2020’s births.
China’s fertility rate is among the lowest in the world.
In 1980, China imposed its notorious one-child policy which The Blaze noted resulted in forced abortions and post-birth infanticide, while parents whose second children weren’t murdered as infants were subject to fines, professional backlash, imprisonment, sterilization, and the families denied access to public services.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
