The thing that this article doesn't take into account is that families with "big broods" end up supporting smaller "childless" couples in their old age because all the children in those "big broods" end up working, working, working to meet their Social Security and Medicare contributions.

Welfare pays by the head for as many as you can have. Much more than your child deduction on your tax form. And of course we know that illegal aliens use their children born here as a hook to be allowed to stay.
