Great story, especially because I didn't see anything in it where the tax payers had to pay for any part of it.

Exactly! Heck, we might turn this country back around if more God-fearing, self-supporting, heterosexual couples would have lots of children.....

For a few years I would get so annoyed around Mother's Day because one of the local papers would publish a story about people who (believe it or not) actually chose to have children. One year there was a story about a midwife who had eight children. Another year the story was about how many families are choosing to have three children instead of two. The frustration wasn't with the articles, but a that a few days later some yo-yo would have a letter printed about how horrible these people are for adding to the world's population.

Except for the fact that they probably don't pay much in taxes at all since they get $15000/yr. in tax credit for their kids.

It's not that I disagree with the policy or anything, but the tax burden in the country is shifted heavily towards people with few or no kids.

The people paying the most eggregious share are thoese working single people who don't live in a house yet. Ouch!
