People that need government assistance to support a child have no business having one. In fact, I would require those wanting to have a child post a $10K bond proving they have the resources to afford one.
What would the fertility rate be under your proposal?

Afghanistan - Entitlement: A female employee is entitled to 90 days of paid maternity leave. Thirty days of the leave is granted before delivery and the rest (60 days) is granted to her after delivery.
United States of America - Compulsory: There is not compulsory leave. Entitlement: 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave with continued group health insurance coverage, to be taken during a 12 months period after birth. 26 weeks for Members of the Armed Forces.
I wouldn't have to do anything and neither would the taxpayers. That is the whole point. If you can't feed'em, don't breed'em. "Fathers" would have their wages/benefits automatically garnished to provide support.
More people would be able to afford to be parents if others weren't over taxed to support the loafers.
You honestly think your taxes would be lowered if that percentage disappeared? And that amount would afford you a child. Roughly if a couple made 100K only had the standard deduction you would pay roughly 12K in federal taxes. Estimating the portion that would go into loafers at 10% your yearly contribution is 1200$

My father tried to kill me when I was little. I was made to keep living with him. He convinced people that it was an accident and I was told by people to be quiet about it and was called names and belittled for talking about it.

Do you actually think that is the problem? Rich people can't afford to have kids? rofl
