I'm really not sure why I keep responding to your posts. The very same thing you rail against conservatives about you yourself engage in.....including not providing ANY facts to substantiate your claims.
decrease some of the funding to military and put it towards other programs. See, that wasn't hard, was it?

That HAS to be their reason becasue one would hope that they can't be so STUPID that they think humans will quit reproducing when they haven't for the last 10,000 years...OH ya They're Repugs they ARE THAT STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!
Who said anything about stop reproducing? I could give a rats ass if a family has 28 children...as long as they don't require my tax dollars to put food in their mouth!

What's so hard to understand about that? And why do you insist on twisting and contorting the theme of this thread?

How exactly would the problem be solved? please elaborate, without adding in the gross assumption that people will stop having unplanned babies if these programs ended.

Forcing their "big government" religious ideologues on people is one of the 1st things on the agenda.

They don't, it's covered under most insurance or people pay out of their own pocket

Again you may not, but your beloved GOP and other right wing nutcases would love to see abortion illegal.

Could have fooled me since he hasn't attempted to suggest a proposal that wouldn't have a detrimental affect on the children. Still waiting for that...

Sorry dude, but logic left this thread with your 1st post. You come on here to try and deride probably the most effective government assistance program in this country; spout all your hyperbole without a shred of research to back up your claims of lazy, unemployed, baby-factory mothers...and expect to be taken seriously...

If you're so worried about your tax money going to 'wasteful' programs, why don't you start a thread about the tax subsidies to big oil? Which dwarf those to WIC...Or tax breaks to GE? Which dwarf those to WIC...

...seriously, you sound like a 20 yr old, who has absolutely no life experiences whatsoever, but who has all the answers...

...just go away, please.

"We the People" are certainly not responsible.

In fact, welfare, food stamps, WIC medicaid, medicare and SS are ALL unconstitutional.

The three branches of our government are NOT constitutionally allowed to provide these programs.

Read the Constitution....it will enlighten you!

BTW... I am not a Repug.
Yes, you are....You equate a car (a make believe car at that) with a baby, a child , a human....that makes you a Repug.


AND as a Repug you only whine, you never offer a solution. THAT is so Repug.
And demanding that people stop having inconvenient babies is NO solution....it's just a Repug wishing for some La-la Land Utopia....where they can live for free...like some bum...with NO responsibilities...



And please do not drive your car on the freeway MY taxes paid for.

Two generations and the problem will be resolved.

After all, aren't ghetto people always marching for community togetherness?

Didn't hillary state that it takes a village to raise a child?
Any proof that family, friends, and churches will be enough to pick up the slack. These things exist now and yet all three of these haven't been able to decrease the dependency on government aid (family and friends can be just as poor as the recipient and some churches are losing money or just aren't big enough to meet the need).

This is so simple.
Before you have children, save your pennies (I sure did). Carry a lot of health, disability and life insurance (I would get paid more if I didn't work, due to self-insurance). Actually, I feel that is your obligation, if you have a family. Don't sponge off the rest of us, as we don't owe anything to you.
You can identify birth defects early in the pregnancy, or long-term disease (my entire family is in the medical field). If you choose to go through with it, with congenital defects, please don't as me to pay for it.

Quote:" How do you account that into your equation?"

Easy. You made your bed, now sleep in it. I ask nothing from you, so please ask don't ask anything from me. Fair is fair. It is not written anywhere that you are owed anything from the government, other than the few laws that state the unalienable rights.

Fair enough?
Not sure why your entire family being in the medical field has anything to do with anything but congrats. I have Google as well as family in the medical field as well.

Back to your response though. Do you abort the babies of people who cannot afford to have them? Once they are pregnant it's a little late don't you think? Now what you are saying is that the person gets pregnant and since they are poor then you take the baby or kill it? Is that right?
