If you subsidize the kids to the tune of $100,000 during your productive years but receive $200,000 in social security and medicare benefits during your non-productive years without having had taxpaying children to support ss and medicare during those non-productive years then you are a free rider on the system.

Using the failure of a socialist system in no way bolsters your position.
