This is so well said. Almost something like Rush would have said

A lot of young men want kids and a traditional family. There is a huge shortage of women that want this...until they are already too old to make it happen. Ive had frank talks with my 25 year old sister who has been brainwashed to believe that she has all the time in the world to find a husband have the family...when reality tells a different story.
Parents have to take some responsibility for this, too. Yes, our kids are influenced by peers and people in education but values and mindsets can be shaped from an early age at home. It starts with having a mother at home raising their kids. Hardest thing I ever did was walk away from a career I’d become very successful in to raise our son. It was also the best & most rewarding decision I ever made. I’m thankful my husband was willing to sacrifice my pretty nice salary so that I could stay home.

Would I be given back pay for previous contributions (5 children) to the birthrate? Does it help if they are all PureBloods? All conservatives. Def did my part and feel I deserve recognition for my significant contributions.

If it were up to me, yes
If it were up to me, people like that would be venerated, not famous people and politicians. I personally think there is no higher class of people than those with large families of kids that became successful

Return Back To The Future to knock the pen out of LBJ's hand that had him sign the 'Great Society' "social" program? Afterall it set on course the state-facilitated replacement of black fathers that destroyed the (then) stable black family structure.
Ultimately, accountability and responsibility are of a personal matter -- NOT a "village".

Will never happen in a billion years. Ever. Women voters, regardless of socioeconomic status, will always be in favor of single mother handouts as an informal sort of "reparations" for "bad men".
At one point in history, single mothers were geuine victims of their situation, but nobody can argue against the fact that 85% of single mothers today are just women that make bad decisions and choices in men.
Dudes could also work on their pull-out game. Hold up your end of the couch fellas.

Out of wedlock, no.
It leads to the decaying of society and a greater strain on the economy.

Pretty sure there's plenty of birth control methods available.

Why do we need the birth rate to increase?
Because a country with a cratering population isn't long for this world
You'd have to be pretty dense to not realize this
The best way to destroy a nation economically is through demand destruction. A country with a population in decline will do this to itself.
We either have to increase our birth rate or supplement our population through immigration

One problem to be addressed is the amount of single mothers with multiple kids living on food stamps and welfare and free medical
If you get my drift...

The cost of childcare is a limiting factor. I pay $45,000 a year for my two kids. I think for most, 2 kids (replacement rate) is around $30K per year.
There should be a public option for daycare. The state should expand the public school system to include a daycare for 1- 4 years old.
I like the idea of more tax breaks. Maybe even something for maternity leave.

And if this is done without rigorous assimilation we will wind up with balkanization and the country we know will be no more.

Trump wanting a baby boom.
Absolute nonsense.
The stuff this guy has been promising and proposing has been all over the place, along with his raft of nevrending royal decrees (EOs), "Martian" exploration, Stargate AI mass Data facility, annexing of Greenland and Canada,
President Trump's supposed position on wanting a "Baby Boom" is just more smoke and mirrors misdirection and distraction from the WEF and Davos overlords currently execution of their chemical, bio, and medical DePop Agenda RIGHT NOW by a thousand different cuts.
And another thing -- who's been counting the proposed Santa Claus giveaways from Trump thus far?
-- Doge, $5,000 (or is it $10,000 per person?)
-- Baby Credit, $5,000 (regardless of who, welfare status, affordability factor)
He pulled the Santa thing during the Covid debacle as well.

I thought it was an obvious joke. I guess I was wrong.
I'm happily married with 5 grown kids.

Yes, I'm aware. I'll add wear a condom.
Maybe it's not your intention, but a lot of dudes will say a woman went and got pregnant or trapped them.
If a man puts sole responsibility of birth control on the woman, then he can't be mad when she pulls goalie on him.

That’s great, but no need for 5+ kids anymore. Meeting the replacement rate is all that’s needed. If people want that, fine, but it shouldn’t be government policy to subsidize a dozen kids. Pays for your own kids and no special tax breaks.
