We seen the republican debate. Many of them take a pro life stance and want to see planned parenthood defunded, and by extension, abortion harder to obtain. We also know the right stance on the poor, from this very board to. To many see them as lazy, a burden, and not pulling their fair share. If the right gets there wish, then the problem here is transparent; how will we support these extra kids? It isn't a question of could we, but will we? You can't say tough luck, because you wanted these kids to be born. You have to pay for their healthcare, and well being. The foster care system will swell greatly and quickly to. Crime will likely rise as poorly raised kids will inevitably commit crime. Jobs will become more scarce as the children take up more of them. Homelessness will rise to. All of this will cost us hundreds of millions and most likely billions. This burden is something America can ill afford, but can with proper compromises, probably increased taxes or budget cuts. It will be a hard sell however, as many conservatives will be loathe to lend aid to welfare babies, or pay more taxes, or take cuts to programs they want. The solution to the influx of extra kids is something that isn't talked about by the GOP, but nonetheless needs to be.
They already are, it's called welfare unless you tuned in late.
They're trying to limit welfare, not expand it, unless you haven't tune in late. I'm willing to bet you haven't, as your name seem to go against your message. I thought you would want less taxes, not more?
I support Universal Health Care. I support ending the stupid useless wasteful wars and using that money on people here. Mental illnesses and addictions included. (Two of the biggest contributors to messed up families).
I support the decriminalization of at least some drugs. This might help to keep parents out of prison for wanting t relax after a stressful day.

Good enough or want me to continue?
Good enough. Your heart in the right place, as you're willing to make the commitment. However, one person can't do it alone, and other people in this thread certainly don't share your enthusiasm to support the kids.

Seems I'm the minority in many discussions. Yes far too many are too interested in killing our kids in stupid wars as opposed to protecting them.
what people "should do" is far different than reality. can't hide your head in the sand.
That's because people aren't allowed to face the consequence of not doing what they should do.
If we are going to have welfare it should pay the same whether you have zero kids or a dozen. Then see how women are welfare are able to keep from getting pregnant.
