Because our society is already in really bad trouble with declining birth rates, so the gov't is going to give some miniscule help to those who are still having kids.

This is a tax credit that people usually got in a lump sum at tax time. Government is deciding to send it out monthly so people dont have to wait for it.

I just hope that people actually use it for their kids.

How morally corrupt would you have to be to take extra money for your kids and not spend it on them? Like that is basically stealing from them.

And I gave a practical solution.

Don't have kids.

Why spend $250k (minimum) for 18 years (minimum) for something that will destroy your social calendar for 18 years (again, minimum) for, what, exactly, in return?

Ok let me try this another way. Here is the problem:

-People have kids that they dont have the resources to support.

Now, go, your solution to that problem.

Not my problem to solve. I had the right solution from the beginning and am therefore not stuck in the bind of a poor financial decision.

(Should go without saying, but just in case, this conversation is just aimed about people who voluntarily had kids -- obviously different circumstances for things like sexual assault victims)
