Too bad we ever went down the road of providing for peoples daily needs...

I do hope we can get to the point that assistance will be limited to only 2 or 3 children. Help those who fall on hard times is fine, providing a gravy train for procreatory parasites is killing the country. Look what it has done in the UK. Stunning and shameful policies have ENCOURAGED women to breed when they can’t provide for them and to AVOID marriage or legal partnership in order to receive more compensation from the government. This is NATIONAL SUICIDE.

In the UK, they give unwed mothers from age 16 their own flats at the expense of the taxpayers. Why not offer an excellent adoption agency network? Also in the UK, there are women raking in a very good living after giving birth several times over. Gov’t policy has promoted the enslavement of taxpayers and created a bounty system for live births. Shameful.

Countries need to expand their population to continue growing. Why not foster population increase by giving working families [via marriage or legal partnership] greater tax incentives and diminish the incentives for giving birth when unemployed or underemployed?

Singapore offers married women with a college degree an incentive to bring a child into the world.

Personally, I’d rather pay very little to the fed and a fair amount in state and local taxes, for constitutionally mandated items, and those which are truly best left to the government...then have them stay the heck out of my life. However, the current situation is such that the underclass is offered the greatest incentive to breed. The very wealthy don’t have the same financial concerns as those in the middle [which includes EVERYBODY who works for a living and cannot afford to quit and live off of accrued wealth]
