But according to another thread, a girl might be induced to pregnancy for a bag of potato chips.
It will be interesting if some of the girls get abortions. Will they then get their $1 or not?
You can’t even buy a Diet Coke with a dollar. What kind of incentive is that?
Good grief. What happened to tent revivals?
God bless Hazel Brown. But she had better stick to nursing.
This won’t work.
Keeping your knees together might.
Oh, the Free-to-Lay thread? LOL!!
So they get a dollar a day until they get pregnant?
Plus free condoms.
If they start this program at the age of 13, then 30/mo x 12 = 360 x 10 years = $3600. That’s a nice b-day present at 23. However, $10.00 a day would be a whole lot better. $36,000 would be a great b-day present at 23.
When is someone going to pay me to not impregnate people?

Yea, thats right lets be fair about this gimmie my money or out it comes.
So what happens when a girl enrolled in this program gets pregnant? Does the state get a refund?
This idea reaks of fail. As has already been brought up, what do we pay kids not to do next?
