re: #182 Belafon

Do you really want people to earn money based on the number of children they collect?

That sounds a bit like the welfare queen argument: People have kids to collect food stamps.

Earned Income Credit partially works that way now, and people aren’t having children to boost their EIC.

There’s a whole lot more to raising a child than food and shelter.

In the meantime, I’m going to bow out for the night. The flood watch has now been dropped in Nebraska, though northeast Colorado still has it going on (and Sterling is still getting pounded).
