Isn't earned.
Seems to be more like a reward for having kids.
I think it's bassakwards thinking.
Why not reward folks for not having more than they can afford.
If there was a tax on child birth, we might see a reduction of the explosion. Pre-paid, of course.
I would exempt those kids already here.
What are ya'lls thoughts?

It suggests, that those who aren't getting it, haven't earned it!

What explosion?

The overpopulation. Too many people dependent on limited resources.
The reward should be given to folks who choose not to overpopulate.

This is where I drop off the wagon. No one should be rewarded.

Aren't less children being born in the United States now then the 1950's and earlier? Families were previously larger then they are now.

More kids born in 2007 than ever before.
40% to non-married women.

shocked

Teenage girls increased.:cry:

I'm still thinking about the previous years. It seems like there's 2.5 kids to every family now whereas there used to be 5 or more kids in each family. That's why there's less people putting into FICA now then before.
