I was really envisioning less of a government forcing a population into re-population and more of a circumstance where people might find the programs appealing as in, "there are no jobs, but people can 'work' for the government by increasing the population in exchange for wages". I can see how repopulation might be less of an issue in a world with radical life extension, though I imagine that new problems would arise in such a society.Government programs to stop this will end in failure. The only way they could force people to reproduce is to control their lives with force - and that won't go down in a world with abundant energy (and a global brain).
