I can't believe Republicans are okay with the bank account freezing aspect. The government taking control of your money and demanding how it be spent is hardly a libertarian concept.
It's almost as if poor people just completely don't matter to them.
THEY DO MATTER. But this is the real world. We see a woman pop out kids like a Pez dispenser KNOWING the more children she has, the more government money she gets. We see women shopping like they're Paris Hilton when they are on "assistance". It's like, "Oh yeah, you get our tax dollars instead of working, but you use it for shopping!"
Doesn't THAT matter to you?
It costs less to have no children than to have any. The benefits only make it cheaper but in the end you pay more than $0 out of pocket to have a child.
You also conveniently ignored my question about the $1000 vs the $300, but that's to be expected. Acknowledging it would force you to change your view.
Besides that, it's not actually easy taking care of kids. No matter what paternalistic conservatives would like to believe.
