Why do the top 1% own over 90% of the world's wealth? Answer that and then I'll answer why the poor have kids.


When you realize who those 1% are you'll answer your question.

That totally doesn't mean what I think it does because I think you're making an antisemitic suggestion

A lot of people are low income because they aren't smart enough to know that having kids is expensive.

Lol I meant that the top 1% are only there because they buy off law makers so that they can stay in the top 1%. The corruption of big businesses and monopolies is strong.

We need laws to put them in check.

Ah. I'm relieved, but the fact I assumed it was a "who is in charge, big Jewish conspiracy" post is telling of how awful CE has grown lately.

Yep. Can't change the laws without removing everyone from their positions and voting them back in.

Because you and I are making them super wealthy while we fuck around on the Internet, browse free porn and watch tv on the phone. We have purpose to the 1% and nothing will ever change that so long as we have convenience to happiness. Your only options are to accept it, luck out or better yourself.

All these government centric arguments ignore the fact that poor people have always had tons of kids, regardless of the benefits available or the system of government. Y'all are literally ignoring all of human history for the sake of crappy, low effort welfare queen rhetoric.

Furthermore you people have no empathy or perspective and are extremely hateful and judgmental towards people you clearly know nothing about. I can't imagine going through life that way.

Except before those families used their children to work on farms, help with the animals, gather firewood, pick berries, wash clothes, make long treks to the only grocery store in town, etc.

There's not much reason in modern society where multiple children are necessity to poor families, except of course for the ones who choose the lifestyle of perpetually having children they cannot afford on their own. No matter how badly you want to ignore it, it's a real issue and not even yourself believes grown adults keep having children because they aren't educated enough on sex.

If you have a counter explanation on why it's necessary for people who sometimes can't even afford to take care of themselves continuing to have children in 2017, by all means, let me know about it.

Or maybe we reenact several famous revolutions and overthrow them? I'll pass on eating them, though.

It's not like these people can afford any other kind of entertainment/time-waster, and the "worst" ones tend to come from religious/Southern areas which vilify contraceptives and abortion. What do you *think* happens next?

"Welp, nothing better to do than raw-dog all day."

I'm not even joking, this is literally the kind of mentality I get from some folks around here in my low-income/adjustable rent apartment complex. Everyone here with kids has 4 *minimum*. The only people here without kids are the elderly (who are instead visited by their numerous grandchildren instead), or single men who haven't managed bag them a single woman yet and start popping out spawn. I'm actually an outlier, I'm one of the only dudes around here of breeding age who *isn't* trying to hop on that particularly train ...though with every passing day I can't find a job, I start wondering more and more just how much child-induced welfare pays out, or if having a baby would sucker a potential employer into giving me priority where they ignored me before.

The funniest part though; Which side of the political aisle is the most apprehensive by the idea of wage increases/job expansion and sex education/planned parenthood to remedy this situation? Trick question; It's both. Connies love making the mess, libbies love exploiting it, and neither actually cares about fixing it whether out of personal malice or benefit.

If the government would force people to live with their choices and not give them assistance instead of taking the money of others then it will slow down. It may not be a popular opinion, but I believe if you created the situation, you have to deal with it, not me.

I refuse to believe liberals who go around saying, "There's not enough awareness and sex education!"---Do you honestly believe a 25 year old who is on her fourth kid doesn't know how sex works? Give me a break.



where do you live where a 25 year old has 4 children
