I mean we could run out of money eventually.. that’s what it would take to turn off the faucet

Birth control should be a requisite for welfare.

Instead of doing the smart and sensible thing, however, they push for abortions instead. So it's deemed "eugenicist" to put Black moms on birth control, but it's perfectly okay to abort 80% of their babies.

What does this have to do with what I posted? We're talking about the correct way for the state to respond to single mothers. Either we let the child starve, or we support the mom (and she'll keep having more children on the tax payer's dime), or she gets an abortion, or you can put her on birth control (even sterlization) and then support the child. Can only pick one.

Sterilization is better than birth control pills because someone can choose to not take the pills and the pills are not foolproof.

Completely agree, but birth control might be more politically feasible. I'm fine with either.

I understand the logic of putting restrictions on people on welfare and I think it generally makes sense.

I also think it would be better to front load that "free money" into proper education and preparation for adolescents to enter into adult life, but in Clown World that's quite the pipe dream.

Speaking of Clown World, it seems entirely possible that a lot of us are going to be put onto UBI in the near future. I'm sure there will be strings attached from which only God's mercy will protect us.

I wouldn't wish anything on today's welfare recipients, whom I think to some extent have been herded onto the learned helplessness reservation, that I wouldn't want for my loved ones in maybe 10 years from now, or whenever the next big thing occurs.
