To Save Itself From Population Collapse, Hungary Offers Couples $35,000 For Having A Third Child

Less than an earned income credit over the life of a child for working class families in the US.

As if the world isn’t overcrowded already.

[BipolarBob]

Population collapse? Really? As in zero people? Doubtful.

[fruser1]

Why don’t they just kill Soros?

[GOPJ]

That’s a hell of a lot cheaper than bringing in a few hundred thousand people from the middle east who hate you... and hate your country....

[socalgop]

population collapse = being under replacement rate = you either import more people with all of the problems the west is experiencing, or you have an aging/social security crisis like the kind that is keeping japan’s economy stagnant. this eastern european approach offers a possible third way out.

[BitWielder1]

There are places in the world where they have more people than they can feed, Hungary isn't one of them.
If you care about your own people, encouraging at least replacement rate is the proper thing to do.
Leftist are full of loathing and self-loathing. Don't listen to them.

[Dr. Sivana]

As if the world isn’t overcrowded already.

It isn't.

[Grampa Dave]

The future is fairly simple.

See my tagline.

[Buckeye McFrog]

I was one of six children.
I have a friend whose daughter has four.

The one thing that is required in order to have large
families is for women to be unselfish.

That seems a tall order in this society.

[neverevergiveup]

Well, if they pay for travel, and throw in several of those beautiful Hungarian women, I'd be willing to help.

I’ve 4x spawn myself. My wife’s a saint with what she puts up with in this house.

Under the Family Protection Action Plan, women younger than 40 who are getting married for the first time can receive a $35,000 interest-free, general-purpose loan. If these women and their husbands go on to have three children, the loan is forgiven.

If they want large families, what they really need is to encourage women to marry in their early 20's.

[PapaBear3625]

Some critics say the benefits are carefully tailored to reach middle-class Hungarians who already have some money and, therefore, bypasses the poor.

Middle-class families are more likely to produce middle-class kids, which is what is needed.

[Innovative]

I think this is a great solution to the problem.

Have good people multiply, instead of bringing in problem people.

[bwest]

I’ll volunteer to serve as surrogate for the unwilling male half of a couple, and I’ll do it for only half of the $35,000

[I want the USA back]

A much better idea than bringing in millions of bearded savages who will rape your women and take your money, and then hate you in return.

Remember merkel who said she was bringing in them to “work”?

I don’t know Hungarian, but where do I apply?

[NorthMountain]

Well, I took a stroll on the old long walk
Of a day -I-ay-I-ay
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk
Of a fine soft day -I-ay
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do
'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue
And I knew right then I'd be takin' a whirl
'Round the Salthill Prom with a Galway Hungarian girl

...

[veracious]

Praise God (YHVH)!!!
