Elon Musk wants people to have more children as America is going towards extinction.

Musk has 11 children and two of his kids are with Shivon Zilis, an executive at his company, Neuralink, according to Benzinga.

Zilis said that Musk and her never actually dated and the twins instead were conceived through IVF.

The arrangement made sense for Zilis as Musk told her that he "really wants smart people to have kids."

Musk’s consistent fear is people not having enough children.

He warned that "population collapse due to low birth rates is a much bigger risk to civilisation than global warming," and he just recently doubled down by posting on X that "America is trending towards extinction" in response to a post about falling birth rates in the US.

The data cites many reasons couples don't have kids besides simply not wanting to, while the 52-year-old billionaire is angry at those deciding to not have kids.

The CEO of Tesla has even argued to eliminate the voting rights for people without children.

A survey of non-parent American adults aged 18 to 49 showed that 56% of respondents said their reason for not having kids was because "they just don't want to have children," while 43% cited "some other reason".

The survey was conducted by Pew Research Centre in 2021.
