In older times, mute people were outcasts so they couldn't proliferate. Nowadays, they can easily communicate and get all necessary things via Internet. In fact, even people who have voice don't use it much now: messengers, games, business correspondence and multiple web services work quite well without voice. Because of all this, population of mute people is growing fast. After 2050, half of kids in an average kindergarten are mute.
