Holy Cow: I as soon as I untwit googlegroups, comes across this drivel
from a googleville nitwit who can only be deliberately trolling for tuna
or be a total dumbass who equates taxes with payment for services
rendered. Of course, there exists the possibility that OP is a child,
and inpatient, an inmate or something like that....
 
I wonder whether OP is paying a "bundle" price for teevee channels or
other cable services it does not use....

It's a very good question. Teh govt is subsidizing people to have more
kids. More people just creates more problems, whether it's traffic
congestion, destroying forestation, more garbage, more CO2......
 
One obvious reason is that the govt is already going broke, unable to
meet all it's unfunded liabilities at all levels. One way to lessen
that or push out the inevitable is to have more kids so that more
taxes come in to pay for all the people retiring, drawing benefits, etc.
The more rapidly you grow the population, the longer you can keep the
Ponzi scheme going.

That argument holds some water for one or two kids. But govt is subsidizing
families of all sizes. Why should a family with no kids or one kid be
paying less in taxes than the same family with 8 kids? All those extra
kids cost a fortune for the public to educate. Even worse, there seems
to be a corelation between having lots of kids and being on welfare.
We should end the madness.

"Seems to be"?? That prove your point?.
 
I would much rather live in a society of educated compassionate people.
At least that education gives those less well-to-do kids some chance of
improving themselves. Without an education - not much of a chance.
