Countries need families. Countries need stable family units. Countries need babies. People aren't doing this enough because whippersnappers on their iBooks etc. The problem is real.

What if the state has a registry of single people, and invites about 100 of them – matched for age and other basic compatibility factors – to the same event on one night. They do speed-dating, get through 50 people in a night, 2-3 minutes per person. Then they give the thumbs-up or thumbs-down to each person.

At the end of the night, people will have an average of at least a few (maybe 2-3, pessimistically) potential matches. But do it every Saturday of the summer, and you have 40+

And then they follow up with a long-form date. Not sure if that's also state-run, I'll need to check the budget.

State Run Speedrunning.

Countries need video games to be over with fast. Countries need stable gaming rigs. Countries need speedrunners. People aren't doing this enough because whippersnappers on their iBooks etc. The problem is real.

They do speed-running, get through 50 gamws in a night, 2-3 minutes per video game. Then they give the thumbs-up or thumbs-down to each person.
