What about Russian Brides? Are safe there? Send money. Maybe you get bride. If not, cheaper than Russian divorce.

Actually, as a conservative, I don't see how letting people keep some of their own money should be called a "subsidy." This is their money, not your money, not my money, not "taxpayers' money."
Unless you think ALL money ultimately belongs to the government. In that case, all the money you have and spend, amounts to "us" "subsidizing" your lifestyle, because we "let" you keep it and spend it.
?
Note: that's not what I believe.

“Because you need to feel good doesnt mean that other people have to pay for it. It may be your idea of Christian, but it is not license to take from others to do it.”
Well said!

Then, as a conservative please explain why you as an adoptive parent of a foreign child get to “keep your money” and natural parents of American children do not (the same large credit). A lesser share of a bill to be paid.

I'm not justifying that. Tax credits for all, say I.

Tax credits for all, say I. Even better, lower tax rates and a much smaller government for everyone. We could save a lot of tax money if the government stopped defending the universal abortion license, and instead let states pass laws favored by each state's residents.
One outcome would be more American babies available for adoption, especially if some of the currently-expended amounts were directed at married adoptive parents, rather than never-married mothers.

I remember that incident, although I remember the adoptive parents being a single mother. That's the one I was talking about..
