and food...is cheap. shit, the poor can even get it FREE in most cases...and do. its called "welfare". and the more kids ya have, the more of it ya qualify for.

thats like saying its ok to shoot yrself in the head to kill yrself quickly because yr trapped in a burning building, and well, everyone else is burned worse then you and only you have the gun for the quick way out.... wouldn't it be better for all if you just put out the fire?
it also sounds like you learned about welfare from some racist middle class white americans who bitch and moan about a welfare system that they have never seen, used, and therefore no nothing if the failures of the said system to alleviate the poor.... i
