' <\/span>I suggest that everyone with a stage and a microphone will tell those segments of the population: 'You are not right.' The more people there are, the greater the chance of falling below the poverty line. <\/span>It is difficult for the state to care for large families and to keep them above the poverty line. <\/span>We are growing at a tremendous speed. <\/span>We are a very crowded country. <\/span>Even the Negev is not so empty. <\/span>No one is referring to this point … There is no developed country in the world approaching the birth rates of the State of Israel. <\/span>Rooting makes a lot of children. <\/span>The number of ultra-Orthodox children has increased three-fold since the 1960s when the number was 2.6 – less than secular doctors. <\/span>Today the number is more than 7. <\/span>
