Abstract
It is doubtful that population growth will be halted sufficiently in either developing or developed countries. The will to regulate population is lacking. The freedom to reproduce when exercised too liberally by some individuals impinges on freedoms of the rest of the population. A population growth target designed merely to replace existing population must be established. In different countries a family size of between 2 and 3 children would be required. To control fertility effectively a social security system for older people is necessary especially in developing countries. As an incentive for couples to practice fertility regulation the correct family size could be established as the condition for participation in social security benefits at old age. For this system to be effective birth control measures must be widely available and cheap within the country.
