Long term it&#8217;s cheaper, better for The [sic] environment, and will never tell you that it hates you or ask you to pay for college.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Having children these days is like owning a boat, Hogg suggested before outlining his vision for a terrifying future of childless decadence. &#8220;Kids are the new boats,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;Like yes kids are nice but most people can&#8217;t afford them so it&#8217;s nice to have friends with one but not have one yourself. Pets are the affordable version of kids today for Millennials and Gen Z and plants are now the more affordable plants.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is the future liberals want\u2014one in which the elite professional class agrees to &#8220;fight climate change&#8221; not by giving up their luxury cars and private airplanes, but rather by simply refusing to procreate.
