It should apply equally to all areas of the country. You get to commit one crime: having one baby out of wedlock and stealing money from others through welfare to support it. But additional babies GET NO ADDITIONAL SUPPORT.
You would see the behavior change over time. But first you need the misery of the circumstances that result to teach others not to partake.
A flame that isn't hot will not cause recoil. We need to UP THE PAIN FACTOR on bad choices. Then we will see new behavior to avoid the pain.
At the present time we encourage burned babies in ovens because we support single moms, recreational sex, drug use, and irresponsible absent fathers. We actually PAY PEOPLE MONEY to encourage these things because we take survival behavior off the table.
There would be few out of wedlock babies and broken families if going that route meant you really truly starved. It's called reality. Welfare is evasion of reality. Not to mention theft from good people to support the bad people.
And this goes for all people in every neighborhood in every state and every community, race, color, religion, sexual orientation, disability, and any other irrational subdivision one wishes to invent to support their equivocations.
No need to preach to me I have never birthed a child out of wedlock nor received welfare so take your holier than though wagon on down the road.
