> The purpose of life is reproduction

There's no "purpose" of life, it just happens, it's physics.

> I am a very successful and wealthy entrepreneur

So now imagine you're not, and your life sucks because of such "successful and wealthy entrepreneurs" sucking all the wealth.

If your life is shit, you naturally don't want to make it even shittier just so you can produce people whose life will also be shit (thanks to the class society). Since we stopped forcing people to do this, they're naturally excercising their will.

But your wealth depends on them reproducing, so that's a nice middle finger they gave you by not doing so. You're concerned? You should be, that's the message.

The first time it happened it was physics. The next several billion years it was the purpose.
