Now tell me how that makes any sense. thing cost more then what you get in your paycheck. I get less then that btw because I am on SSD from my disabilty (kidney failure from a genetic illness) so don't sit here and tell me cost of living isn't f*cked up. millions of people are living on min wage. You like going to the store and buying food at a reasonable price right? The price is low because people are working min wage. That coffee from starbucks or w/e is cheap because the people working there are gettin min wage..
$156 per month isn't going to make or break the birth rate.

That's where I live. We have no min wage here, we have wages regulated by collective agreements with unions, even if you work in a McDonalds you can afford living on your own.
Nice dodging. Allow me to answer for you, since you're probably aware that you're in a corner.
If the mother is unable to afford her child then one of two things will happen:
a) That child will get taken away by social services and end up being cared for on the taxpayer dime regardless.
b) The child will suffer in extreme poverty for the duration of its life.
Since you're apparently against taxpayer money being used to help children, I daresay B is your optimal outcome.

I'd take the time to explain all this too you, but it is a simple google. And I can't fix your bias or inability to realise that deadbeat moms is a thing, women give up their children too, etc.
If you have a child married or not you have a legal responsibility to provide for that child until the age of 18. Don't want the state to set your child support based on your wages? Make a better custody deal. The wife isn't entitled to the funds the child is and if you can prove your wife is using the funds for herself then you can bring her in for contempt action and hold her liable.
Medically unable to work but runs a company he sold for 2 million. Doesn't sound like medically unable to work at all, sounds like BS. Which from his con man personal injury action he attempted to extort from a restaurant pretty much follows suit with this dude being full of shit.
The bastard child is entitled to a better life because if you were to take responsibility the child would have that better life. But you chose to abate your responsibility and instead write a check.
I don't know how to explain the consequences of actions idea to someone who obviously doesn't understand it and is more concerned about hard earned cash than a human being they helped bring into the world. No one said don't wear a condom, no one said don't pull out, etc. Why is it on a woman to pay for and be on birth control, by your logic of "why should I do anything to prevent child birth?"
Also, it is the law, don't like the law get it changed, move or don't break it. It is pretty simple.

Women don't have security the heck are you talking about.. um, part of the reason I got the sterilization was because all that stuff can fail.. I thankfully have never been pregnant but it's always been a fear. I've always been careful when being with my partner.. I don't feel sorry for people who don't take safe sex seriously. if you really don't want kids you will do everything you can to prevent it like I have.
