LOL, not even after the first child, second, third, fourth. All kids born into poverty. That is selfish. Then expect the tax payer to pay for them because you can't control yourself.
Well hell, if the taxpayer is going to pay for the result why should you care?
It's not too harsh but the reality is many skilled worked are making close to min wage and not receiving benefits. I'm not talking about job creators or game changers, I'm talking run of the mill admins or middle managers and blue collar people, average people with average abilities and connections. Those jobs aren't there like they used to be so we have only a few choices: the typical American family idea ends and people stop having kids while the idea of families living in their own home and raising said kids ends and people share housing with family and/or friends and society changes completely in a few generations.... OR we focus on the employment end of things.
Maybe it's time to explain to everyone that if you plan on being on this planet or bringing someone else to this planet in the future (short of a mass extinction event like the right kind of solar flare or WW III) then there will be increased pressure and strain on resources causing both increasing prices and decreasing supplies along with outright shortages of some things. No matter how ideological you are wages will not be keeping pace with the cost of living no matter what you do but you can certainly mitigate that problem to the best of your ability by contributing to society and bettering yourself by learning all you can until you're 10 toes up.
Or you could not tell people and use them for vote gathering schemes so that you can screw over as many people as possible for your own gain.
I don't think you can ask someone how many children they have in a job interview, so unless the person is whipping it out in front of you, I don't see how you would be able to gauge someone's urges.
Either that or you would never hire anyone under 30. Or you forgot what it was like to be a teenager or 20 something.
Why would you ask someone about their familial status. Just ask them to tell you about themselves and people will tell you stuff not even related to their careers and in many cases not even about themselves and in case you aren't up on times people put their entire lives on the Internet for the whole wide world to see.
It is called connections my friend, it isn't about your value, it is all about who you know. Sure, you could find a CEO that came from poverty and worked their way up to being a CEO, but more often than not, they got that job because who their daddy is.
OH bull$hit!
I guarantee that of the Fortune 500 CEOs, very few are in their positions because of their father.
While I won't argue that they all have some connections, those connections are school and business associates, not dad and grandpa.

It's much easier to blame your lack of success by saying you weren't given it by your parents.
Sure, Jack Welch was born to a railroad conductor and a homemaker. Sure he worked after school and during summers. Sure he started as a junior engineer after graduating college and worked his way to CEO.
But isn't much nicer to think he was given that position by his father? After all, if he can make it to the top by hard work and achievement alone, it kind of reduces your excuses for not succeeding to the level you want.
