Minor detail - libertarians don't believe in welfare payments except in the most extreme instances, and certainly not for unwed mothers.
Exactly. Libertarians I know would see that “almost $1T welfare” figure and immediately drop it from the budget as a no-brainer and call it “an excellent START.” While libertarians would say raising a child alone is the parent’s right, NONE would suggest the taxpayers pay for it.
In theory professional libertarians are against welfare, in reality they promote it through their actions. Open borders a pathway to welfare. Encouraging youth to have sex knowing full well they cant support themselves. Pretending that drugs dont create dependent citizens. And so on.
