If you can't afford a child then don't have them. Way too many do for taxes and pell grants.
i see that way too much at work. i work in a really shitty part of town. like it's not uncommon to hear gun shots on any given night. hell i don't even duck anymore i'm so used to it. anyway, it's not uncommon to see some woman, not married mind you, with 6 or 7 kids. sad. see it way to often. they squeeze'em out just to get more $ from the state.

but at the same time not all people are abusing the system.

The number of Americans receiving food stamps reached 39.68 million in February 2010, the highest number since the SNAP program began in 1939.[4] As of June 2009, the average monthly benefit was $133.12 per person.[5] As of late November 2009, one in eight Americans and one in four children[6] are using food stamps and the program rate is growing at 20,000 people a day.[7] Recipients must have at least near-poverty incomes to qualify for benefits.[8]
