More than half of the population are poor and undereducated. For those it pays to be on the system and have kids for money out of wed lock.

More than half of the population are poor and undereducated. For those it pays to be on the system and have kids for money out of wed lock.

And that's why middle-class American women will fight fiercely against any attempt to reduce welfare -- because they know that a poor young woman without access to welfare will try to be the mistress of some guy with money.

That's for sure. I know a young lady who wasn't going to go the route of her sisters and become a single mom. Her sisters got free education and many other perks. They looked down on her because she wasn't a mother. Now she too has succumbed and is also a single mom.

There wasn't any real help for her lower economic place in life until she became a single mom and now much is paid for and she is likely on her way up. Moral, responsible young people can't get help, but those who run out and get pregnant get all the help they could want? Talk about rewarding bad behavior!
