monkey paw finger curls You get free healthcare coverage and half minimum wage for each child just for existing. However, you and your child must renounce your citizenship, forfeit your passport, and accept indentured servant status until you can buy back your citizenship after repaying the government child support in full.

He should know that you can't buy that many diapers with $5k.

Unless he doesn't do his own diaper shopping I guess...

I wonder how they'll make it so it only applies to "Aryan" children. Hitler did the same shit.

Daycare cost $2k a month

Is that for real? That's more than (many) private schools in Europe.

$5,000 is a lot to those braindead morons who insist that "nobody wants to work" because they're still living comfortably off of a few $1,400 checks from half a decade ago...

We need to feed the ones we have now

How about some of that socialism for the rest of us, and not just for breeders and soybean farmers?

Why only after the baby is born? Is there something significant about the moment of birth or something?

What are the odds this is just Clinton's $5,000 Baby Bond, which was just giving them a fund at birth that they can cash out when they turn 18?

Except this time there's no guardrails and he can give it to all his cryptobro friends.

I feel like that's more than $5k in the picture if they're all $20 bills.

The average cost of delivering a baby in the US, including pre- and post-delivery expenses, is roughly $18,865. However, this figure can vary significantly, just gotta come up with the other 14000 dollars lol do Amerikans know other countries don't gouge their citizens for everything including birth?

Have 4 kids.

5k is couch money when you have kids. It'll maybe take care of a few months of daycare. Now if you're on gov assistance and make next to nothing? This will be great, but don't expect to get a job or climb out of poverty with 5k. A kid will eat that up super fast.

We had this in Australia for a while, where there was no hospital costs for birth, and almost 20 years ago, so it was a considerable help. The conservatives started claiming people were having babies just to get the money and then spending it on big TV's and other luxuries.

So weird. These are the same imbiciles complaining about welfare babies.

Are these those welfare babies Republicans always screeeched about?

More ineffective Band-Aids.

The core issues never get addressed. Prices keep going up.

And those issues will get worse under a corpo like Trump.

They'll need a population boost after Trump deny's immigrants entrance into America.

Fash privileging heteronormativity in order to increase servitude and hasten planetary destruction? Fairly normal in our culture.

Spending money on families hasn't been shown to help in any way whatsoever in increasing the birth rate. You have countries with close to free day care and generous monthly child subsidies with the same or even much lower fertility rate as countries that give just about nothing at all. I still support these kinds of policies just for the sake of helping families and their kids, but doing it for the only purpose of helping the fertility rate is futile. Honestly I don't think the government can do much at all to help the fertility rate. It's a cultural issue first and foremost. And the government can't (and I think shouldn't!) do much to change the culture of our society. You see people living in poverty with 9 kids just because they belong to a certain religious or ethnic group who values children above all else. That's the main issue. How important is children to the culture? Is it prestigious to be a dad or a mom? Is personal success measured in how you've built your family or is success measured in how much money you make?
