But I would go even further. It seems to me that couples who are willing to raise three or more children should not just have their student loans forgiven, but should be sheltered from all federal taxes.

That punishes people that don't want kids. Kinda goes against the whole individual liberty thing, eh?

We don’t have children, but we still have to pay for schooling the town’s children. Society bands together for its continued existence, the future of which is defined as children. People have the freedom not to bother with children in their own lives but, as members of society, they don’t have the freedom to not help society continue. MO

Wasted, I think mairde was referring to adopting or fostering kids from bad homes. So, yeah, they were already taking care of the kids somebody had and decided they didn’t want. Is that muddy enough for you;)
