When you compare birthrates to Germany you see that higher educated people have less kids. The problem is more, who has kids. Low educated ones, people in the middle east, 3rd world people. Overpopulation is not an issue for 1st world countries but they fight a decline of birth rates. Those that should actually have a lower birth rate pop them out like crazy. In the past it was normal to have high birth rates because a lot of the kids did die young anyway but now the 3rd world has more and more access to better health care and now we face the over population and the youth bulge in the middle east and the 3rd world.
The main goal for the elites is, that certain countries have actual less birth rates. You can control people more easy when they are singles, focus on their career and feel the emotional emptiness with consuming things. Japan is just lucky that they don't open the gates to millions of invaders. But their culture is kind of strange. Everyone moves to Tokyo and is catch in the rat race of be busy.

We will stand tall in the sunshine
With the truth upon our side
And if we have to go alone
We'll go alone with pride
For us, these conflicts can be resolved by appeal to the deeply ingrained higher principle embodied in the law, that individuals have the right (within defined limits) to choose how to live. But this Western notion of individualism and tolerance is by no means a conception in all cultures. - Theodore Dalrymple
