103. Children cost money, but don't make money |
|
so do senior citizens, and they get social security. Children are not pets, or cars, or computer parts. They are people.
I pay taxes for lots of things I don't like. I don't like that I pay property taxes but churches don't have to. But I pay the taxes anyway.
You're insistence that you are being fined to pay for children sounds a lot like when I hear freepers say think they're being fined to pay for food stamps for people to buy snickers bars and pepsi.
Society doesn't have the ability to tell people to stop having children any more than society has the ability to compel people to have children.
