Exactly. Women have 100% control over whether they have a baby or not. Reliable contraception and abortion (which in most states does not require the father’s consent, not that there’s really a safe, reliable way to confirm who the father is anyway) are always available, and adoption often is (though depending on race and physical infirmities, often the only option is dumping the baby into state foster care, which the state will try to get the father to pay for). If a woman has a baby, and doesn’t have a firm written contract with someone else (husband, father, other) to support the child, she should be on her own financially. Lots of women would learn how to avoid getting pregnant if babies didn’t come with a regular check either from the government, or from a “father” forced by the government.

Self-control on the part of the woman would solve the WHOLE problem. MORAL ABSOLUTES.
Exactly, which is one of the major flaws of the current welfare system.
I don't see that there's any shortage of people who cannot have children of their own who would be willing to adopt, especially when I see the number of people with foreign adoptions.
