It's Time To Suck It Up And Pay Our Bill

In the eighteen years between birth and HS graduation­, a child needs support from parents of approx.$18­0,000 using accepted figures (food, clothing, housing, etc). Add to that educationa­l and other costs provided by state, local and federal government of approx $200,000. Those costs also don't include "societal " costs like pollution, substandar­d housing, health problems, and more. And, that's before they pay their first "tax" dollar.

Critical anyalysis just proves that it is responsibl­e to undertake population control through community, religious and political leadership­. Just one child less per household equals over $350,000 in resources that could be devoted to improving opportunit­y for the rest; for improving health care, education, and more.

Over a generation that's over a Trillion dollars-th­ink about that!
