The taxpayers are losers of their own hard working money going to these lazy azz abusers who are losers in a whole different way. We need to put an end to the right to procreate when people have more children than they can afford.

What are you talking about? If I take a handful of singles, and I throw each one into the gutter, I'm not losing anything. I'm throwing them away. I have no right to be mad at the gutter for accepting the money.

Here's the difference.....

You choose to throw your money in the gutter. Therfore you didn't lose your money .....

It doesn't create innocent lives to use as a threat to get your money.

That's not correct. It's your choice to be a citizen; therefore, like it or not, your continued participation in the U.S., your state, and your city is tacit approval. I understand your frustration with the degree of force to which we're subjected, but that isn't a rational explanation for having a grievance with these people. The reason you stated is the grounds to hate the citizens.

It's interesting that nobody has brought up abortion or birth control in this whole thread. Nobody wants kids to grow up with loser parents like this nor do taxpayers want the gov't to try and pay for their upbringing, yet many people want to limit birth control access and abortion access. I just find it interesting.

You cannot force anyone to take birth control or have the abortion.
The best one can do is make it available to them. If they would rather have those kids and be dependent on the government there is nothing you can do to force them otherwise.

There is no limited access right now so that is not a valid excuse for stories like this. 30 kids here, 15 kids there, etc. The stories are out there and are probably the tip of the iceberg. Sorry but I just don't think these are the extreme edge cases. There's just too many of them popping up these days.

What makes you think that taxpayers pay to house this guy or feed the kids? It says nothing of the kind in the article. And why do people assume that the mothers are on welfare or that they have a bunch of kids? For all you know they are all nurses with only 2 kids each.

Because that would defy common sense. These women must be some low down skanks to have kids with this guy.

But if we start limiting access to birth control and outlaw abortion, we will have more of these types of cases in society and we the taxpayers will be paying for more of these types of situations. Who knows how many kids this fool would have right now if abortion was illegal and birth control made harder to get...

I wonder how he was able to 'bed' 11 different women at least 30 times without a word of protest (well, not a lot, I suppose) from any of them.

[he should write a book...!]
