​Not just immoral, it would be suicidal for the rich not to do so.

we cannot tolerate increasing population with no end in sight.  China's
policy was a disaster, but I think I can tolerate infringing on people's
right to have children to limit them to two.  Maybe along the way that'll
be lowered to one.

​No need to pass laws about that if we spread the wealth around because
there is a inverse relationship between income and fertility. Germany,
Italy, Japan and Austria actually have negative birth rates, and they are
among the world's richest countries. ​
​The countries with the highest ​birth rate are also among the poorest,
 Niger, Mali, Uganda and Zambia
