Can we admit us child-free people have an advantage? (lawyers, elections, elect)

By the way - you come across as though you think having babies IS a disease. Someones baby will be wiping your behind in a nursing home one day. I do hope you're grateful when the time comes.

Completely wrong analogy - apple. and oranges.

Nobody can guarantee they are always healthy - hence the insurance. Also not buying insurance used to be by choice but Obama changed that.

You see you equate having babies to a disease, I said multiple times having babies is a personal choice while we can't choose to not have diseases.

I have no children, and I never used our public educational system.

Why should I have to pay to educate other peoples' children via property taxes?. Public education comprises 40% of my annual bill.

Yes. You can leave the country or go to jail for tax evasion.

Not long enough to realize that the US tax system isn't a la carte. You pay for the system, not what you use.

Thanks for your name calling. You are more selfish than you sound.

You are being asinine. That's not a "choice." Neither is it a part of a constructive discussion.

I know how it works.

The system isn't broken, it was built that way.

You wouldn't have a superiority complex would you? Those who truly are complacent with themselves don't feel the need to run down others in order to build themselves up.

Or a person who is not able to even get close to another human willing to propagate with him.

Saying you sound miserable is name calling, but calling me selfish isn't.

You honestly don't get that you sound extremely unhappy here with our system and that you are the one who is selfish.

Your support for using other people's money to raise your own children is selfish. That's just a fact.
