The reasons for poverty are simple and easily understood. As the saying goes, poverty is the natural state of living beings. Rabbits and squirrels are famously poor.
A much more interesting story lies in how people rise above it.

How can we afford any of these options?
All the medicaid enrollies are going to financially kill that program. We can't afford a health insurance bail out and we certainly can't afford single payer.

When you pay women to have children they wouldn’t otherwise have, you get unwanted children. Only a mother who doesn’t love or want her children would treat them like Dasani’s mother treats her.

Wow. ANOTHER piece dumping on unmarried mothers. TWO op-eds in the New York Post today yakking about it today. Usually there’s only one. Where are Heather Mac Donald and Nicole Gelinas? Come on, y’all, join the pile-on.
We all know the statistics. But these women did not abort their our children. Give them a bit of credit for that. They chose a hard road rather than kill someone.
Sick of it.
