How about taking some money out of defense for education?
Personally, I refuse to vote for any kind of tax increase. And, yes, I’m not happy to pay for other people’s children’s education. Most people are not qualified to have children. If we had a population decrease for once, real estate would not be so expensive and the damage to the environment would be much reduced.
In life, we need licensing (i.e. qualifications) to do almost anything, even cut hair. But there’s no pre-requisite for having children — one of our most important responsiblities we could have. Sex and, voila, out pops a child. Many couples actually think that having a child will “fix” problems in their relationships. Go figure.
I would support legislation requiring the adoption of a child before one could have a natural child…. But don’t think that would be constitutional…..
