When you start in low population world usually you will suck all free folks really fast and we should be able to ask them to breed more in exchange of family subsides especially when the only bypass actually is cloning center artifact with + 1000.

Growth from 'breeding' is very low in the game, realistically so, because it takes a generation for the children to become adults, and a generation is a lot of turns in this game.
Most 4x game are entirely unrealistic in this respect, but Vic took the realistic view that city growth comes mainly from immigration. Has always been the case. Most of history living in a city was so unhealthy that without immigration the population would decline.

I agree, and we already have the boom stratagem for the baby booms. However I wish this was more tied into the population/economy side instead of an instant button.
Would be cool to see cloning added to the game
