[quote=bearishgurl] Knowing what I know and have seen throughout life, I don’t think people should have kids who can’t afford them. It’s akin to asking taxpayers who did not create the problem to help pay to support them. It’s a parasitic request.[/quote]
Interesting how you pointed out the similarity between the two issues of children & tax payers.
I see your point of view, but I am sure you can understand that you cannot force parents NOT to have kids and there is no way you can stop taxpayers from getting the goodies & shifting the pain to a future point, UNLESS there is a change to the representative type of government that we have today.
So either we live with the current system where we suck up and pay for our neighbor’s mistakes or have a new system where we have more say on how others lives are run.
