    Damn almost like you shouldnt have them if you dont have that extra money. Doesnt seem like the government should just subsidise everyones children at my fucking expense.

      Do you want people to take care of you and keep your lights on and grow your food when you’re older?

      If yes (because you cannot provide all the complex goods and services you’ll need in your old age), you want people to have kids. The kids of today are the doctors, farmers, and power plant operators of tomorrow.

      People are not having enough kids, largely because of how expensive they are.

      As established, you want them to have kids so that you can stay alive as you age. Therefore, you will absolutely let them have their tax breaks.

        Lmfao acting like ill get to benefit off other peoples children when im older and not just going to be left to fend for myself… you know… how it already fucking is. So no. Id prefer to save my own money so i can afford to set myself up when im older. Theres plenty to keep the lights on and grow food. Theres not enough to keep corporations breaking record profits. Dont fall for the fucking propaganda. And quit fucking punishing me for NOT having children i cant fucking afford.
