First they implement a 1-child policy for ~40 years because they recognize the problems with overpopulation. Then they switch to a 2-child policy but people don't bite, because they've realized the benefits of having 0-1 children. So they eliminated the 2-child policy, and now want to punish people for not breeding the right amount. If the 1-child policy had been implemented with some kind of economic transition in place, they wouldn't be having this issue now.
China has more people than any other country in the world. The only way they could be said to be running out of people is compared to India, which is set to surpass China as the world's most populous country. (And even that population growth in India is mostly coming from the undeveloped regions; in the developed regions, the average number of children per woman is around 2.1)

Let's also not forget school taxes, even though we have no kids in school. Our property taxes are close to $10,000 a year, with 85% going to the school district.
Sorry for leaving that out quiltergirl. Property taxes are a big one.
