"As United States taxpayers know, income tax laws have long implicitly encouraged marriage and childbearing...Such a pronatalist bias of course is no longer appropriate. In countries that are affluent enough for the majority of citizens to pay taxes, tax laws could be adjusted to favor (instead of penalize) single people, working wives, and small families. Other tax measures might also include high marriage fees, taxes on luxury baby goods and toys, and removal of family allowances where they exist. Other possibilities include the limitation of maternal or educational benefits to two children per family."

He’s not just a creep, he’s an enemy of Western civilization.
Evil.
Just plain evil.
I don’t think that “czar” is a position that requires confirmation. Besides, they confirmed Holder, Geitner, will confirm Sotomayer, et al.
whups for some reason my browser double posted. . . . sorry everybody!
Eliminating tax breaks to families doesn’t punish them, it just fixes an inequity that gives them preferential treatment over individuals. They will be paying the same taxes as individuals.
Other possibilities include the limitation of maternal or educational benefits to two children per family.”
Now there is a kicker.
“I’m sorry Suzi, you were born third
so no schooling for you.”
Where DOES Obumble come up with these people??
The Bible rejoins that children are like arrows, how blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. (That does not mean that God can’t bless the single and the celibately married, of course.)
Sure.. half the Democratic base is large family based, but they happen to be minority, can’t touch that. Prime evidence in showing that the Democratic party is that of small cults rigidly segregated so they don’t come to know one another and hate each other.
Yes he was. . . . here’s what Vitter had to say. . . but I don’t think anyone opposed his confirmation

Damn, now you've told them!!!
Agree with with FPC wrote.
Thats why 0 is just hiring these czars because they are only accountable/answer to him.
America is being hijacked.
All those anti-war, anti-america in the 60’s and 70’s are coming to power with the 0 in office.
Right out of the communist manifesto.
They’re his pals from way back.
From Dims that worship China, possibly? The one child rule there? They are the largest Communist country for the 0bums to replicate.
Path to sure demographic self-destruction, idiot.
hey does that mean they start taxing welfare moms who keep popping out more kids to get more benefits?
It’s not an inequity, it’s a policy designed to encourage people to have children for the future of our society.
You, as an individual, only spend on yourself; families are spending on the next generation, the people who are going to be paying your social security and taking care of you in your old age.
They get that treatment because they are providing something that the government needs: new people to pay all those future taxes that have already been passed upon them. If nobody has them ( and we are pretty close to zero growth Arley (would be if not for immigration), then the government will have to admit that their ss and medicare transfer payments are bogus. So they won't.
“taxes on luxury baby goods and toys”
???????????
these assholes have too much time on their hands
Besides all the other stuff I could bring up, 8 people living in one house is going to use fewer resources per person than a single person living alone.
This man is going to wind up adjacent to a lamppost.
The purpose of his idea is to reduce the number of White Christians or Jews, while letting populations increase out of control in non-White/non-Christian countries. Then the American lefties will say “we should let them come in, since our population is dwindling. We need people to do the work Americans can’t do because we eliminated most of them”
Maybe he would like us to adopt China’s “one child policy” and do forced abortions and sterilizations while he’s at it.
ROFLOL
Yesterday I read some other, equally bad quotes from a book he authored with a couple, the Erlichs, in which he pitched totalitarian govt. having complete power over all resources, goods, health, etc. He also wanted to reduce the population for the good of the planet, and suggested one way to do it would be to put something in the water supply to make women barren. This man, Dr. John P. Holdren is a peach of a guy.
After you google all you can about him, look up Van Jones, the new green czar-ex felon who found his niche while in prison where he made best friends with radical black revolutionaries. He came out of prison a card carrying Communist.
You do not even have to connect the dots--Obama is doing this for those who care to look. Where do you think he is going with all these initiatives that require govt. aid--try the collapse of our govt. and complete dictatorship (Cloward-Piven theory, anyne)--remaking the govt. in the image he wants.
Voila! His hope becomes the change he touted and wanted and never really defined because he could not have won with it.
vaudine
sounds like an early chi-com to me - i wouldn’t put much faith in what he wrote in 1977 - sounds like he got high and decided to write a “scientific book” what a libtard wacko
This guy (the science czar) has said even worse things. In his book he came out in favor of forced sterilization and abortion. He is a NAZI.
I’m confused. Does Obama want to subsidize the Octuplets Mom or punish her?
I assume this means people who want children. He is correct, in that many European countries have very low birth rates. They are also losing their identity to the Muslim "workers" who they have had to import to keep the social program payments going. A country that has children is a healthy, vibrant country. A country that discourages children is moribund.
Mark Steyn points out the same thing in regard to Euros who just can't understand why Americans have to drive these big cars. It's because Americans are still having children, and you need transport for a family, not for just two people.
Pretty sure you meant CHILDLESSLY married...
Why oh why did this evil little creep’s parents not believe in his twisted philosophy... ?
This is what passes for sophisticated thought among the East Coast, Ivy League college elites. And, that, is where Obama met all his friends and collegues.
I want to know who pays the salaries of the Czars? Who approves the White House budget? The WH expenses have to have doubled or quadrupled with all of these new people and their staff not to mention all the personal flights of Air Force One.
What does this have to do with science?
Yup. It’s the European way. (How’s it working out for them?)
Right out of Satan’s handbook.
The family was the first institution of man, created by God.
It’s also the prime vehicle by which the knowledge of God transfers from generation to generation.
Understandable that it would be under attack by Satan’s minions.
“loosely adjacent”... swingin’
“If you want to build a Coal Fired power plant we will bankrupt you.”
“If you want to keep your current health plan we will bankrupt you.”
“If you want to have more than two children we will bankrupt you.”
Troll alert!
Congress approves the budget. In the end, we taxpayers pay for these american traitors, just like we pay people not to work.
Now lets all go make some more money for the government.
Sounds to me like
he’s an enemy of life and a colleague of satan.
They ooze forth from slug slime in the lowest cesspools of hell.
It still amazes me how self professed conservatives can do a 180 and turn into big government, “let’s use the tax code for social engineering” and “your tax burden is never too small when it comes to MY kids” when it hits their pocketbooks or even worse, when it comes to others being forced to support their children. I know several arch conservative couples who have 4-6 kids and brag about how they don’t pay hardly any taxes at all...while condemning high taxes in general or criticizing how liberals give tax breaks to their constituencies.
I didn’t ask you to have those 5 or 6 kids and nobody asked my opinion before they raised my taxes and lowered (or eliminated) yours because having children is “such an expense”. Your children are your decision, why do support putting a gun to my head and require through the force of law for me to pay YOU to raise them? What is the oft spoke phrase of conervatives when they see welfare queens having more kids to gain greater benefits? “If you can’t afford them, don’t have them.”
And each time I mention it I get the “MY kids are going to pay YOUR social security!”. Not only do I not want YOUR kids paying MY social security but this has to be the most lame and unsupportable excuse coming out of the mouth of a conservative I’ve ever seen. We all know SS is a ponzi scheme requiring more and more workers paying into the system to cover more and more retirees.
Their response only codifies the system, basically becoming an enabler to the one issue that we all agree is bankrupt and will not be able to serve much longer without drastic changes.
And what will those changes be? It will become a needs based welfare program which means I’ll never see a dime because I was responsible and took care of my own future needs. So you can take “MY kids..pay YOUR..” and stick in the lock box.
There’s nothing more exasperating than a conservative who talks the talk but won’t walk the walk when it hits THEIR pocketbook. You’re an opportunistic poser, nothing more.
Tell you what: cap welfare benefits to a max of two children. Let me know how that turns out.
