Joke among economists, Macroeconomics

Assignment Help:

There is a joke among economists that children are an "inferior good." In many countries there appears to be a negative relationship between income and the number children in a household. That is to say, higher income households tend to have fewer children than lower income households. Do you think this is true in the United States? Do you think this is true in other countries?
