Poor people have children as economic gains, because it usually means more welfare and extra working hands depending on what demographic of poor. They are happily willing to put 3+ to a room in a shack, and jam a bottle of regular ass milk into a newborn.
Its the people above poor, the lower middle class, where the economic issue arises, because it does look prohibitively expensive from the outside without the crutch of welfare and taking the full burden of it on two full time working parents alone while following "the rules" of paying for things like formula and cosleeping.
Feminism plays a huge part in why that happens to be the case, but the monetary angle is what most people are looking at when they consciously decide against having a 3rd/4th/so on to up the rates.
