It makes sense to subsidize increased population because:

- The government has to populate the next generation of Iraq and Afghanistan babysitters.

- Corporations need cheap labor. A higher population will increase competition for jobs, pressuring salaries down.

- When regulation is reduced, more workers will be killed/injured on the job, and replacement units workers will be required.
