A great many women have one or zero children.
Some significant number of women must have three or more just to compensate for them, or the birthrate will fall below replacement level.
The "subsidies" are merely a (very) partial compensation for the costs associated with raising children, an activity vital to the continued survival of a society.
BTW, our glorious European allies have much more generous childbirth incentives. They aren't working. Essentially all European countries are well below replacement levels in their birthrate.

Seeing that Mohammedan women in Europe have 7 or 8 children, it's simply a matter of time before they become an Islamic continent (with nuclear weapons).

Europeans pay women to have children and they won't, you look at a country like Mexico --- no financial incentives or welfare and they're breeding like crazy --- you'll find hundreds of thousands of children abandoned to the streets.

But this is not desired by the powerful elites in our society who much prefer our population to be replenished by massive third-world immigration.
