Could the reform of the right to vote be a solution to the economic downturn?

In an opinion piece I published at the end of June, I argued that the exemption for mothers’ allowances should be abolished, as it is unsuitable and even counterproductive in achieving the goal of increasing the number of children born to halt or slow population decline. Tóth I. János responded to my article, arguing that instead of abolishing the exemption for mothers’ allowances, it should be maintained and evaluated over a suitable period. He believes that the main problem is not a lack of large families, but rather the lack of the first and second children. In this article, I respond to his claims, arguing that the key to demographic change – unlike his proposed solution – is primarily to strongly support large families and create a suitable “mother’s life path.” However, the debate can extend beyond the technical details of family support and even to the so-called “family voting rights.”
