An "interesting" concept would be to be birth controlled from birth and only be allowed off it if you could prove you were a suitable parent who can financially support their child.

I don't mean that no-one could have benefits to support a child, more so stop people who are on benefits having ridiculous amounts of children when they can't afford them.
