Well, I live in the real world where everyone has children, those who can least afford it having the most. Now, if you favor mandatory abortions and birth control for the stupid, poor and genetically unfit...you may be living in the wrong decade, and the wrong country. Adolf went thataway.
The bolded part is very telling. I have a customer who has a lot of tattoos, one I particularly like is the bullet hole in the top of his foot. He got that one after another run in with the law, he put it there to remind himself of his propensity to shoot himself in the foot.
"Those who can least afford it having the most (children)". This sounds like the description of a series of bad decisions to me. Should we keep bandaging the foot every time they shoot it, or teach them not to shoot themselves in the foot? I've stopped shooting myself and am teaching gun safety to others... both literally and figuratively. Allowing people to be subsidized while they continue to make poor decisions would be bad enough, what our government is doing (and you appear to be agreeing with) is rewarding them for bad decisions because they (government) benefit from it. The major problem here is where the "help" comes from. Those of us who give of ourselves to help others expect results. Those who use other people's money to "help" don't want to work themselves out of a job. There are benefits to being able to buy power with other people's money. Anywhere outside of government buying stuff with other people's money would be called "theft" and where I live it might get you shot. Perhaps we need to start shooting the thieves.
