That's exactly right. There were multiple redundancies and people still kept starving their kids, so finally we had to directly feed them ...while still never eliminating the other programs, of course. And then they miraculously discovered that essentially nobody in America was capable of feeding their kids lunch, so it expanded to cover the majority of people. Incompetence is the word of the day in liberal America.

Or maybe because half this country has IQ's below 100, people with below average intelligence aren't the brightest by definition...

And that's the direction the preponderance of reproduction should go?

Have you not seen 'Idiocracy'? Look it up. Watch the full version.

I have seen Idiocracy, good movie; but you are advocating Social Darwinism and Eugenics, how can you honestly feel good about that?

So answer the question... Why take money away from me for my providing shelter, food, and clothing for my kids to pay for someone else's when that someone else doesn't bear the same responsibility for their kids?

For the second time, I expect a serious answer to that question.
But the problem is that you're not serious.

Sure, I can say that my answer is based on the reality that I've seen and sometimes experienced for the worse by spending time in countries where support from the army was necessary to access the only available transportation and the only safe place at night was in residences surrounded by barbed wire with guards.

But you've got to know that that is a possibility. So why ask?

Healthy democracies debate questions like the topic of this thread, hopefully placing the conversation within a context that most can relate to. You've opted out of that context. So be it.

Same way Margaret Sanger did when she founded Planned Parenthood and her "Negro Project." Do you have an objection to Planned Parenthood and the services they provide?

I know about Margaret Sanger, that deceptive tactic isn't going to work on me

Just try disputing the fact that Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood's founder and a progressive, was a eugenics proponent.
